Macdonell has more than 25 years in the construction industry and joins Dewberry’s design-build practice to serve in a project management capacity for public- and private-sector clients across the southeast. Prior to joining the firm, he was a senior vice president for a North Carolina-based general contracting firm, where he managed day-to-day operations, financials, recruitment, project management, and insurers.

“I have a background in working with architects and municipalities to deliver construction solutions that meet their needs,” says Macdonell. “Construction and design-build needs across the southeast are growing, and I’m excited to have joined Dewberry and help serve these clients across the state and region.”

Macdonell earned a bachelor’s degree in geology from the University of Alberta (1997). He is a professional geologist with licenses in North Carolina, and Pennsylvania, and a member of the Society of American Military Engineers.
