FROM OLYMPIC DREAMS TO CONSTRUCTION EXCELLENCE Price’s path to construction began on Vermont slopes, where competitive snowboarding shaped his approach to business. Growing up near Burton Snowboards’ headquarters placed him at the epicenter of the sport’s emergence, surrounded by future Olympic athletes who pushed boundaries and set new standards. “I grew up working on a farm and growing up working on a farm, one, it taught me a really good work ethic,” Price reflects.“It also allowed me to wrap my head around a lot of difficult scenarios as far as fixing tractors or mending fences or building barns or whatever it is we might need to do.” The farm experience proved foundational for both athletic and construction pursuits. “I think some of that upbringing really helped me with some of the difficult structural challenges that we get into with some of these older remodels, but also that drive and that hard work ethic helped me in being an athlete and striving to be one of the better athletes in the world,” he explains. 25 BUSINESS VIEW MAGAZINE VOLUME 12, ISSUE 06 FOREST STREET BUILDERS
