2023 Ones to Watch Rising Stars: Jayce Barone, Chapman Construction / Design

Jayce Barone
Assistant Project Manager
Chapman Construction / Design 

Number of years at firm: 2.5

One thing on my bucket list: Visiting all of the U.S. National Parks! Last year I did a road trip around Utah & Arizona, stopping at Grand Canyon, Zion, and Bryce Canyon National Park. That trip sparked my interest in seeing what other parks have to offer around the U.S. - each one has so much beauty, it’s incredible to see!

When I am not working, I am: Outside of work I love to travel and spend time with my family (including my dog) and friends. I also recently just moved to a new neighborhood of Boston so I’ve been enjoying exploring/getting to know the new area!

What recent project, transaction or accomplishment are you most proud of? I recently became a Passive House Certified Builder which was a really rewarding accomplishment. I learned a lot about the construction behind ultra-efficient buildings while also making them resilient / durable to the climate and healthy / comfortable for all occupants. Since receiving this certification, our company was awarded our first Passive House project which I am currently co-managing! I could not be more excited to apply everything I’ve learned in the field!

What makes this nominee a RISING STAR? “Jayce has grown so much over the last few years, making her way up the ranks at Chapman. She has learned the industry and is always open to taking on new challenges with a smile. She is a quick learner, an effective communicator, and an exemplary member of the team!” - Stacy Roman, Senior Project Manager at Chapman Construction/Design
