Les presento a Owen.

Nacido y criado en Virginia Occidental, ahora es gerente de proyectos en la empresa constructora local de su familia..

La historia de Owen se basa en la familia, el trabajo duro y una profunda conexión con la región de Virginia Occidental. Criado en Petersburg, Virginia Occidental, los valores de Owen se forjaron gracias a ALL Construction Group, la empresa familiar propiedad de veteranos con fuertes lazos locales. Desde muy joven, la construcción fue para Owen más que un trabajo: fue una vocación. En la escuela secundaria, Owen ya estaba adquiriendo experiencia práctica, aprendiendo el oficio junto a familiares y vecinos.

Today, Owen serves as a project manager, helping lead infrastructure projects across the state. Outside of work, Owen values time spent outdoors and with loved ones, staying grounded in the lifestyle that defines the region.

For Owen, what makes West Virginia truly special is its people, strong sense of community and natural beauty. At the same time, Owen recognizes the challenges many communities face, especially the need for more local jobs and long-term opportunities. That’s why Owen sees promise in the Valley North Project. By expanding electrical infrastructure, the project has the potential to create meaningful work and give more people a reason to build their future close to home.

Owen also understands the importance of improving how energy is delivered. West Virginia is one of the nation’s leading energy producers, and modernizing transmission systems is essential to ensuring that energy reaches the communities and industries that depend on it. Projects like Valley North represent go beyond grid infrastructure improvements — they help support growing demand while contributing to long-term economic strength.

In Owen’s line of work, reliable electricity is critical. From communication systems to safety operations and emergency response, dependable power makes a real difference. Investments like Valley North can also help open doors for local businesses, creating new opportunities for companies like Owen’s to continue growing and succeeding.

For Owen, it all comes down to opportunity: supporting jobs, strengthening rural economies and modernizing infrastructure while preserving the lifestyle that makes the region unique. Owen believes projects like Valley North support a stronger future while honoring the generations of people who have helped power the region for years.
