WELCOME JC&A’S SUMMER INTERNS
JC&A is pleased to announce our new class of summer interns. Our firm is committed to mentoring and developing the next generation of industry leaders. Within the Operations department, these seven interns will learn from the fast-paced and dynamic field of commercial construction management. In addition, the internship will offer them exposure to both the field and administrative aspects of commercial projects.
We look forward to working with these incredible young people throughout the summer!
MEET OUR NEW SUMMER INTERNS
CHRIS BUCKING
Chris is currently enrolled at Skidmore College, majoring in Business Management.
While at Skidmore, Chris spent three years playing on the Men’s Lacrosse Team, where he was named Captain during his junior year. He also volunteered for Umbrella of the Capital Region in his free time, providing free landscaping services for the elderly in low-income homes. Chris’s passion for construction management stems from a life of building things with his dad on his family farm. Construction management perfectly matched his business degree and a love for building.
Chris enjoys hunting, fishing, ATVing, and woodworking in his free time. At JC&A, Chris is looking to gain valuable experience in the construction industry and learn as much as possible from the people he works with in the office and the field.
ROBERT COUGHLIN
Robert is entering his Junior year at UMass Boston, majoring in Business Management with a concentration in Finance. Robert is a full-time student and could not be happier that his first internship was with JC&A. Over the years, Robert’s father has gone from the political side of life sciences to the real estate side of the life sciences industry–and learning from his father has influenced Robert over the years.
In his downtime, Robert’s favorite thing is to enjoy time with friends and watch sports. This summer, he hopes to accomplish learning many life lessons and gain some real experience here in the workforce.
TREVOR GIANGRANDE
Trevor is currently enrolled at Wentworth Institute of Technology for Architecture. As a full-time student, he wrapped up his first year making the Dean’s list for academics and various design projects. Trevor’s passion for design and construction began in high school where he took his first class in AutoCAD and architecture.
Trevor likes to spend his free time taking road trips with his friends and learning new languages. He hopes to get a better understanding of construction management and to expand his social network while at JC&A.
JOHN LAMBERT
John Lambert is currently enrolled at UMass Amherst and is majoring in building construction technology.
While enrolled as a full-time student, John earned his LEED green associate certification, his OSHA 10 certification, and plays club lacrosse. John has worked at a golf course and an irrigation company; however, his passion for construction comes from hearing about his recently retired Grandpa’s career in the construction industry.
During John’s free time, he enjoys fishing, golfing, hiking, and skiing. This summer, John hopes to get a good sense of what role he would like to pursue in the construction industry after he graduates next spring.
LUCAS MEADE
Lucas is currently enrolled at Syracuse University with marketing and management majors.
While enrolled as a full-time student, Lucas worked in food services at the University. Growing up, Lucas had always worked in the construction industry during the summer and thought it would be exciting and essential to see things from the management perspective. This desire for continuous learning led him to JC&A last summer, and it was such a rewarding experience that he decided to apply again this year.
In his spare time, he enjoys golf; whether on the range or the real course, he loves just being out there and swinging the clubs. This summer, he hopes to continue to meet and network with leaders around the company and expand his network as much as possible.
JOE MURTHA
Joe Murtha is currently enrolled at Tufts University majoring in economics and minoring in entrepreneurship.
While at Tufts, Joe plays on the Men’s Lacrosse Team and was named a captain for his senior season. He will be returning for another semester and playing one more season for the Jumbos, due to a season being cancelled from Covid-19.
In the past Joe has worked as a lacrosse coach, waiter, and an intern for a commodity brokerage company. He is interested in construction management because of strong team culture that is required to be successful. He hopes to learn as much as possible about the industry and expand his network.
In his free time he loves to golf and watch college football.
LINOY NOIKAS
We were introduced to Linoy through The Commercial Real Estate Success Training (CREST) internship program. CREST is a paid internship program designed to introduce people of color and women, both of whom are typically underrepresented, to the commercial real estate industry.
Linoy is currently enrolled at UMass Amherst with a primary major in building and construction technology and a secondary major in economics. She is fluent in Hebrew, Russian, English, and Spanish.
While enrolled as a full-time student, Linoy has worked as a Teacher Assistant at UMass Amherst for a building and construction technology class and organized the Building and Construction Technology special lecture series. In addition, Linoy has interned at National Lumber and participated in the MiQ learning labs.
Construction, Finance, and Project Management have always been her passion due to constantly being surrounded by professionals in the field. During her free time, Linoy enjoys skiing with her family and friends, and she spends most of her summer with her family on Cape Cod, MA. During her time at JC&A, she hopes to achieve new goals and learn as much as possible about the construction industry.
BRYCE VISNICK
We are pleased to welcome back Bryce Visnick as an Intern following his internship with the firm last summer. Bryce Visnick is currently a senior enrolled at Tufts University with a degree in civil engineering. While enrolled at Tufts as a full-time student, Bryce won the 2019 division 3 national championship with Tufts men’s soccer and worked around campus for College Movers Boston.
His passion for construction-related tasks comes from an internship that he worked during high school that dealt with construction and civil engineering, as well as from a family of architects. During his free time, he enjoys watching, playing soccer, and hiking. During his time at JC&A, he hopes to learn how to better communicate ideas in his field and build good relationships with the people around him.
