Cathy Burkert became president and owner of ACR in 2013. With a degree in business management and her industrious nature, she felt passionate about the industry.
Burkert started from the ground up. She joined the laborers' apprenticeship program to learn the intricate details of the trade. After 2 years in the program, she began running her own shotcrete crews and shortly thereafter earned the title of Field Office Coordinator. In March 2009, Burkert became the first female ACI Certified Nozzleman for the wet-mix, vertical, and overhead processes.
Burkert drives safety, quality, and dependability delivered at a competitive price in every contract her team develops.
She has written several articles for Shotcrete Magazine, published quarterly, by the American Shotcrete Association.
