The STRO Cos. has hired an industry veteran as its new director of construction.
The Ridgewood-based firm, which serves as a Millstein family office, said Jegar Keeney comes to its team after six years as a senior project manager at CBRE. In that position, he provided end-to-end project management services for Fortune 500 clients.
He joins STRO with 15 years of industry experience.
“We are happy to have Jegar join our firm,” said Jeffrey Buchman, STRO’s chief operating officer. “His experience and knowledge of real estate construction, development and management will prove to be invaluable to our firm as we grow.”
Keeney, a West Milford resident, holds a bachelor’s in architecture from Savannah College of Art and Design.
“I would like to thank Steven Millstein, Jeff Buchman and my new colleagues for this opportunity,” Keeney said. “The industry experts at STRO are impacting our market, and I am extremely excited to join this team.”
