The Value of Experience: Justin Sylvester's Journey

In this episode of The Burgess Civil Podcast, we sit down with Justin Sylvester, our Estimator, to explore his journey in the construction industry. Immersed in the field from a young age, Justin was already working in estimating by 18, learning from a mentor who shaped his career. He shares why skipping a traditional four-year degree was the best decision he ever made. Now, at 26, he’s thriving in his role, producing quality bids, and mentoring others. Tune in to hear how Justin’s hands-on experience and determination have led to his success-and why his story proves that success doesn’t always follow a traditional path.
