Brian O’Connell

What were you doing before you started with DA and when/why did you join the team?

I joined DA in August 2024 after two years with Cambridgeport Custom/Cox Engineering, where I worked primarily on quality control.
I was given the opportunity to learn the job from the best in the business and I couldn’t pass it up!

What characteristics make you excel at your job?

I am a quick learner and take pride in doing things right.
Attention to detail.

What is a quality about you that isn’t obvious at first?

I’m not just good looking, I’m pretty smart too! 😁

What is a talent you possess or one of your hobbies that people are impressed by?

I am a good artist and enjoy drawing. I am also a carpenter and can fix just about anything.

When you have some spare time, or plan a future event, what is your go-to?

I shoot pool whenever I have the chance. My wife and I also like to travel. Hawaii is at the top of our bucket list.

Who are your favorite people to spend time with and why?

I love spending time with my wife and kids, even though they have all grown up and moved away from home!
And Simba, of course, who technically isn’t a person but our English Mastiff who weighs 170 lbs.
