Dave started Keystone Construction Co. in early 1995 when he “retired” from his career as a new home project manager after putting his wife through law school and following her back to her native Montana. Dave began in residential construction in 1984 in central Pennsylvania working summers during high school and college leading to a career with Centex Homes of Dallas, TX after graduation from Harvard University in June 1990. Dave worked as a field supervisor and project manager for Centex Homes in Charlotte, NC and then as an area manager in Nashville, TN before moving back to Pennsylvania for his wife to start law school at the University of Pennsylvania. One year in Philadelphia and South Jersey with Ryland Homes building condominiums and town homes in Camden County, NJ led to two years with E.G. Stoltzfus, Jr. Custom Homes in Dave’s native Lancaster County building custom condominiums at Bent Creek golf course. May 1995 marked the beginning of Keystone Construction starting with storm damage restoration work for insurance companies and expanding to our current operation. Dave spends his limited free time motorcycling, tending to the horses on his acreage north of Billings, and enjoying the company of his wife and two children.
