The promotions are part of Cannon & Wendt’s plans to grow their leadership group to help meet the demands of today’s construction world. The promotions took effect on January 1

Leading the promotions are Sterling Woods and David Goris. Woods will continue to lead the firms’ Field Operations as Senior Vice President and Goris is being elevated to Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Advisor.

“We look forward to Dave and Sterling remaining steadfast in our pursuit to create an ESOP environment unmatched by any other company, while providing growth for all stakeholders,” said Cannon & Wendt President Shane Snyder.
