Hank's journey in the construction industry, beginning at 16 as a laborer in Eastern Washington, laid the foundation for a career marked by notable achievements and recognitions. His deep-seated passion for construction led him to specialize in construction and real estate accounting, culminating in his first role at Moss Adams in San Diego. Hank's rise to prominence as a construction accounting leader in Southern California saw him managing significant projects, including high-profile financial audits and construction mergers.
A move to Boise, Idaho, brought new opportunities. Hank joined Sloan Security Group as Controller in 2019, and his rapid ascent to CFO and Board Member in 2020 marked him as the youngest in the company's history to hold these positions. Under his stewardship, the company not only made its debut on the ENR 600 list in his first year as CFO but has maintained this position since. The company has since been recognized as the ENR Mountain States Subcontractor of the Year.
Beyond his corporate achievements, Hank has been a prominent figure in professional circles. His expertise and insights have led him to speak multiple times at the CFMA national conference, reflecting his professional experience. His leadership skills were further recognized when he chaired the 2023 Northwest Regional conference, a testament to his ability to drive industry discussions and initiatives. Perhaps most notably, Hank was honored with the prestigious Chairman's Challenge Coin, an accolade that underscores his exceptional contributions and commitment to the construction financial management community. With CPA, CCIFP, and CRIS credentials to his name, Hank continues to be a leading figure in the industry.
