Asked what one message he would share with his fellow contractors, he said, “Work hard, surround yourself with great people, lean on your friends and relationships, but more than anything, have fun. We are part of the greatest industry in the world. Embrace it, own it and enjoy the ride!” Gopffarth became MCAA’s president at the close of MCAA24 on March 21, 2024.
