Ben Bickerstaff always imagined that he would be “somewhere turning salt water into fresh water.” A native of Anniston, Alabama, and a graduate of the University of Alabama civil engineering program, Bickerstaff is now founder and CEO of a company that solves a problem he first noticed as a cooperative education employee for a large construction company.
As an employee, Bickerstaff became involved in the industry, doing everything from making copies to finding companies to bid on contracted construction jobs.
