Ron Mitkowski

Ron Mitkowski stands on a scaffold suspended from a building.

My name is Ron MItkowski. I’m a New York City dweller who loves to get his hands dirty. I’ve spent the last 44 years working in various capacities from tool-toting carpenter to major construction superintendent. And for 20 years, I’ve belonged to this band of men who support each other’s desire to engage in their craft, enjoy a good meal, good company, and share a hopeful outlook.
