Today we speak with 2nd Hand Carpenter, Mike Sherwood.

Is there a jobsite you’ve worked on that stands out to you? Why?

Regeneron stands out to me because that is where I started at EDA. I take pride in the solutions we came up with for figuring out the angles and trims for the soffit finishes.

What’s one thing that helps a jobsite run smoothly?

One of the biggest things that helps a jobsite run smoothly is having a positive attitude.

What’s something people would be surprised to learn about your job?

I think people would be surprised by how much preparation and organization go into daily planning.

What’s your go-to sandwich or lunch order?

My go-to sandwich is a pastrami sandwich from Katz’s Deli.

What motivates you on the job?

Troubleshooting and problem-solving are what motivate me on the job.

What’s one tool you couldn’t live without?

One tool I couldn’t live without is my metal brake.

Who’s someone at EDA who makes your day better?

Someone at EDA who makes my day better is Joe MacNamara.

What’s one musical artist or podcast you couldn’t live without?

I like all upbeat music, so I don’t think I could pick just one artist or podcast.

What does Successful Together look like on a jobsite?

Successful Together on a jobsite means everyone working hard, voluntarily helping one another, and staying ambitious and motivated.

If you weren’t in construction, what would you be doing?

If I weren’t in construction, I would be grilling on a beach.
