Deanna, or Dee to her friends, has been a member of Mountaineer Contractor’s team for over 8 years. During her time, Dee has been primarily responsible for the day to day traffic control operations of their various paving projects. Dee did not come into the construction industry through traditional means. In her past life, while working as a bartender and cook, she had a regular customer that worked construction. While discussing a career that provided the benefits and retirement she was looking for, he recommended Dee join her local Labor Union.
“And the rest is history as they say. There is no time like the present to try a new career path in the construction industry. Whether you are attending college, vocational school or looking for a change in your current career, there is plenty of room for growth and opportunity in construction,” Dee said.

Dana’s journey in the asphalt industry has been shaped by both family influence and her evolving career interests. Growing up with her father, Don, who is a sales representative for Mulzer Crushed Stone, Dana was always surrounded by the world of construction and paving. However, when she started her studies at Marshall University, she wasn’t certain about her career path. It wasn’t until her senior year that she discovered her passion for Human Resources and decided to pursue it further.
