About this listen

Welcome back to the Crushing It In Construction Podcast!

This week, I caught up with Vinay Reddy, a civil engineer who runs one of Southern California’s fastest-growing construction management and landscape architecture firms, RE Services.

Vinay thought he had it figured out: computer engineering, then Silicon Valley. But after too many late nights in the lab and a humbling realisation that he just wasn’t cut out for code, he found himself standing in front of a drywall contractor at a Uni career fair.

They talked. He got an internship. And from that moment on, construction just made sense.

This episode mostly touches on the messy stuff, like starting a business from scratch, how to stay sharp and smart, and why most clients still don’t understand what a billable hour actually includes.

Vinay also shared how his parents’ relentless work ethic shaped his leadership style… and why building a team of A-players has been the backbone of RE Services’ growth, (and could be the key to yours, too).
