Craig Matthews

Craig joined Riley in 2015 as a project manager. After delivering successful projects for major healthcare, commercial, and industrial customers, he became the company’s first dedicated Quality Control Manager in 2019. Craig holds a B.S. in Construction Management from UW-Platteville and a Masters Certificate in Project Management from UW-Madison.

Craig grew up in Marinette, WI and his first “job sites” were building camps with friends in the Northwoods. He was introduced to engineering and technology by his father, an Industrial Engineer.

“I always enjoyed building and assembling as well as drawing, and kept notebooks of buildings and planned cities,” Craig said. “As a teenager, I became involved with SkillsUSA, specifically team engineering challenges. I liked working in a team to solve complex engineering problems. I was excited to pursue construction management in college since it brought together many of my interests.”

Craig is the proud father of two boys and a girl. “They’ve taught me patience, empathy, and resourcefulness, which have made me a better person and professional,” he said. Outside of work, Craig enjoys traveling, playing golf, following all the local sports teams, coaching youth sports, and “having the greenest lawn on the block!”
