President and CEO Adam Jelen, is a founding member of the local ACE Mentor Program. Seeing the program’s success in other cities, Adam helped spearhead the formation of the Milwaukee affiliate in 2017. Since then, 190 area high school students have entered the program. “It will greatly benefit Milwaukee, and for the test of time, not just in the short-term,” Jelen says. “There is a sustainability and vitality and structure to the program that is second to none when it comes to architecture, construction and engineering.”
