A Working Partnership
| Mike Porcarelli, Steve Filippone, Cliff Person, and Curt Comstock enjoy a close working relationship with their clients. It's easy to see why clients feel at ease allowing Whitefish Builders freedom to offer alternatives at every phase of the development of the project. Experience enhances problem solving ability and allows for a first hand relationship with our employees, subcontractors and material suppliers. Most importantly, this enables us to keep on track and our clients well informed throughout the entire building process. |
| Mike Porcarelli has been working in the construction
trades for over 25 years, focusing his skills on the carpentry trade. He brings this experience into our project organization and management. Mike was raised in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. While attending the University of Colorado, Mike was a member of both the CU and US Ski Teams. While there he visited Whitefish and the Flathead Valley. He settled here in 1972 with his wife Sherry. They now have a grown daughter and a grandson and continue to enjoy camping, hiking, skiing and motorcycling. |
