Call me crazy....I am known for saying “Monday is my favorite day”. I love my weekends too with family and friends. But I do look forward to Mondays where I get to work with our folks, our clients and make an impact in our communities.

He grew up in Colorado, is a lifelong Colorado State Ram fan and continues to make Colorado his home; with Kansas as an adopted state because that is where his grandchildren are.

One of my favorite quotes is “The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall,” from Nelson Mandela.

Monte is a Colorado native with over 30 years of industry experience providing both overhead support in finance and accounting, as well as project management of large infrastructure projects. Monte attended both the United States Military Academy and the University of Colorado (Denver) where he graduated with a bachelor’s in accounting and later earned his MBA. His early career was spent in Chicago preparing financial statements in the cellular division. After spending a few cold winters in Chicago, he decided to move back to Colorado where he began working on an O&M contract for E-470. As he advanced in his career, Monte teamed up with Triunity’s Sean VonFeldt and Mike Peek doing project controls, while all at previous firms. Monte eventually made his way back to Denver where he teamed up with Sean and Mike again, but this time on the RTD FasTracks program. The band was back together! Eventually Jonnie Thomas was convinced to bring this motley crew on one by one, so that we could stay on the FasTracks project. The rest is history!
