    Abalone’s founder and CEO, Terry Chalupa, has been in the construction industry for over 40 years. Each passing decade has given him the confidence and expertise to lead Abalone with foresight and a greater understanding of all factors at play in the industry.

  • Randy Chalupa

    President

    Randy has climbed the Abalone ladder—going from an entry-level position to being named president in 2014. Randy is ambitious, and has always pushed for more responsibilities by filling roles such as superintendent, estimator, project manager, operations manager and vice president. It’s exactly this sort of drive that has given him access to a wide variety of interesting and complex projects.

  • Gary Zeitner, R.E.T., MBA

    Sr. Vice President

    Gary’s first experience with Abalone was in 1986 when we were a subcontractor on his first project after graduating from NAIT. His experience in roadbuilding, highway maintenance, aggregates, and earthworks give Gary a broad-based perspective on the heavy civil industry while his previous roles as project administrator, estimator, estimating manager, operations manager, general manager, and vice president give him insight into all levels of contracting work. Gary’s focus at Abalone is to build on the great history we have to ensure sustainability by being our customers’ contractor of choice.
