ABOUT TREY LOMEL
From Corporate Finance to Small Business OwnershipI grew up on docks—fishing, swimming, telling stories.I never thought they’d become part of my career.That changed in 2024, when my wife and I acquired a marine construction company. She picked the business. I picked up a post-hole digger.I came from finance, not the field—but I brought curiosity, a strategic mindset, and a willingness to learn from the ground up. Since day one, I’ve been focused on earning the team’s trust, understanding the trade, and scaling a 20+ year-old company without breaking what made it work.Now, I share the journey in real time—through this page and on our podcast, Dirt to Docks.What you\'ll find here:– The real-world challenges of growing a blue collar business– Lessons I’m learning as a first-time operator– Culture, leadership, and hiring that actually works– And yeah, how to build a dock that won’t quit in a stormThis isn’t theory or corporate fluff. It’s practical, messy, and sometimes hilarious.If you’re in the trades, thinking about buying a business, or just curious what it really takes to run one—follow along.
