Red Hawk Contracting Co. Inc.

President and leading visionary of RED HAWK Contracting, Desi Valdez learned early in his career that INTEGRITY, Quality, Value, and Timeliness are the main ingredients to satisfying a client in our industry.  

Desi graduated from Texas A&M University in 1991, with a degree in Construction Science. After working 4 years managing designers, engineers, and contractors for civil construction projects at a Texas lignite mine, he returned to San Antonio in 1994 to work in commercial building construction. With over 17 years of experience, Desi reached out to his business partner and started RED HAWK Contracting. Today, Desi’s main focus is to lead the RED HAWK team in ensuring clients are well informed in their decision making process.  

In his leisure time, he enjoys biking, fishing, and attending informal social events. He also enjoys spending quality time with family and close friends.

Shelley Delgado, Vice President and Partner of RED HAWK, provides oversight for daily administration, accounting, HR, risk management, and IT. In addition, she offers support to the construction field operations.

She has over 30 years of experience in construction administration, tailored with the fact that she grew up in the industry. After graduating from Texas A&M, she returned to San Antonio to follow in the footsteps of her parents in their concrete forming and waterproofing subcontracting business. She eventually broke off from this to establish her own subcontracting business. Soon after, she was approached by Desi with the idea of becoming a general contractor. Her experience has provided RED HAWK with an INNOVATIVE perspective. Shelley has actively served over 15 years on her local water supply board, and is currently presiding in her 7th year as President.  

She enjoys spending time with her family and friends whether it be barbecuing or just enjoying day trips.  She is an avid college football fan and of course, her favorite team is the Texas A&M Aggies.
