David Croteau graduated with a degree in Civil Engineering from Laval University in 1994 and completed a master’s degree in Civil Engineering, also at Laval University in Quebec.
He began his career in the steel industry as a structural engineer for Canam Group. He then served as Technical Director and finished his tenure as Sales Director for the Structural-Heavy Steel Division, where he managed a number of high-visibility projects, including Yankee Stadium and the new Mets Stadium.
In 2008, he took up the challenge of developing the construction division that designs and utilizes engineered wood products manufactured by Chantiers Chibougamau, now under the Nordic Structures banner. His guidance has led to thousands of projects of varied scope, complexity, and budget across Canada and the U.S., including scores of projects in California, Texas, Oklahoma, and Colorado, among others.
As well as sitting on the Canadian Wood Council’s Board of Directors, David serves as the President of the Board of Cecobois, whose mission is to promote innovation and provide leadership in the development and utilization of wood products.
