“Justin is a proven leader with a strong operational background and knowledge of current construction and activities at Sky Harbor,” said Bo Calbert, president of McCarthy Southwest. “He will be a great asset to the coalition, and McCarthy is proud to participate in the coalition and recognize the airport as a vital economic engine here in Phoenix.”
Kelton joined McCarthy in 2001 after serving as a U.S. Marine, and he has received several promotions over the past decade. He earned a Civil and Environmental Certificate from Vermont Technical College. He is a board member for the Arizona Builders’ Alliance and is a member of the American Society of Civil Engineers and theWestern Maricopa Coalition (WESTMARC). He also participates in McCarthy Heart Hats, the volunteer-based community outreach arm of McCarthy Building Companies that includes McCarthy employees and their family members who support the communities in which they live, work and play by volunteering for communityprojects and fundraising efforts.
