                                                    Joshua began working for his family company,
                                                    Jenks Excavation Ltd. at a young age. He admired
                                                    the hard work and dedication it took his parents to
                                                    build the company.
                                                    This admiration inspired him to pursue a career with
                                                    the company in hopes to eventually take over the
                                                    reigns. After completing his post-secondary
                                                    education in 2014, Joshua took on the role of project
                                                    manager. He has since taken over the majority of
                                                    responsibilities in the day-to-day operations.
                                                    Working in an ever changing, fast paced industry,
                                                    Joshua takes every opportunity he can to gain
                                                    knowledge and grow as a young professional.
