President

With a degree in mechanical engineering from the University of Virginia and an MBA from the University of Dallas, Kevin blends technical precision with creative vision in every project.

Before founding Bluestone Construction, Kevin spent 15 years as a mechanical engineer and project manager, leading complex, high-performance builds. Today, with more than 25 years in custom residential construction, he has developed a reputation for building homes of exceptional craftsmanship, architectural beauty, and lasting value.

Kevin’s work spans styles from modern mountain retreats to elegant French contemporary homes, but each reflects his core philosophy: build every home as if it were your own, and ensure it lasts for generations. Clients consistently praise his attention to detail, design sensibility, and hands-on leadership.

Known throughout the Greenville and Asheville luxury real estate markets, Kevin leads a collaborative process with homeowners, architects, and tradespeople to turn vision into reality.

Outside of work, he travels to explore world-class architecture and enjoys restoring his 1967 Corvette convertible — another outlet for his passion for design and engineering.

Whether it’s a vintage car or a luxury custom home, Kevin believes that thoughtful design, timeless materials, and an uncompromising commitment to quality have the power to transform how we live and feel.
