DAN HAMILTON: On making a big impact in a short amount of time
MEET TODAY's GUEST:
DAN HAMILTON is an assistant project manager with The Christman Company—based in Lansing, Michigan—and he is also a member of the Industry & Alumni Board for the Construction Management program at Michigan State University. And as you are about to hear, he has already accomplished a great deal in his impressively short career.
By way of his background, Dan grew up with a keen interest in building—brought on by his love of legos, and big cranes, and fond memories of walking around residential development projects with his Dad. After high school, he gained valuable field experience working in both skilled and unskilled labor positions, until he found his way to the Construction Management program at MSU, where he graduated in 2018. While in college, he participated in two internship programs—one for Whiting-Turner on a large federal project in Jacksonville, NC and the other for The Christman Company, back in Michigan, where he eventually accepted his first entry level position as a Project Engineer.
Since graduation, Dan has worked on a variety of projects throughout mid Michigan. And true to the history of The Christman Company—which has been steadily shaping the building landscape across Michigan State University’s campus since 1908—Dan is now leaving his own impact on the grand home of the Spartans. His portfolio of campus work already includes: a $40M renovation to the Music Building, a $10M renovation to the historic Cowles House, and an $11M addition to the Packaging Building. And he will not be leaving MSU’s campus anytime soon, as he is scheduled to manage a $28M renovation of the Federal Credit Union (which is aka the “old” headquarters building), followed by a renovation to the Old Museum, and another addition to the Packaging Building.
Outside of his day-to-day responsibilities, Dan also leads Christman’s Internship Program, where he is producing phenomenal results. Since volunteering to help a few years back, he has maintained a 100% track record for inspiring Christman’s interns to become full-time employees upon graduation. That’s not too shabby, particularly in today’s highly competitive race to attract new talent.
