We’re proud to showcase two of our outstanding employees for the month of February. Both have shown enormous dedication and work ethic and we’re grateful to have them as a part of the Gramercy team. Let’s meet them now:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nicholas Kelty, Project Engineer\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Nick has been working at Gramercy for almost a year now and serves as the field engineer for the Manhattan DDC project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Originally, Nick set out to become a physical therapist. However, after a year at SUNY Cortland, he decided to transfer to SUNY Farmingdale to complete his degree in Construction Management and follow in his family\u2019s tradition in the industry. Nick\u2019s grandfather owned a demolition business, his father serves as the Safety Director here at Gramercy, and two of his brothers also work in construction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nick finds his job dynamic and enjoyable, using the analogy of being a “hybrid” between the office and the field, much like a running back. He attributes his gift of gab to both his mother and father and is an effective communicator, relaying information smoothly between the two areas of the business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his spare time, Nick enjoys working out to maintain his physical and mental well-being. On a personal note, Nick is married to a woman he has known since elementary school and together they have a dog named Murphy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Christian Escalera, Project Manager<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Christian has been with Gramercy for a little over a year, and we’re thrilled to have him on our team. He grew up in Puerto Rico and earned his undergraduate degree in civil engineering there. He later pursued a Master’s in Civil Engineering at NYU.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inspired by his engineer grandfather, Christian always knew he wanted to become one as well. He developed a passion for building at a young age, and he reminisced about his first project as a child, which was building a skateboard ramp at his house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Christian is married to Melissa, a professional soccer player who competed in the Olympics representing Colombia. In their spare time, they enjoy playing and watching soccer together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We appreciate Christian’s hard work and dedication, and we’re happy to have him as a valued member of our team. Christian is currently training for the Boston Marathon<\/a>, and we wish him the best of luck!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
