Ryan Tate
Sr. Project Manager/Estimator
Ryan has been involved in the painting industry since he was 15 years old and has been a part of the Select/Marquis family since 2013. Starting out selling tools, hardware, and paint at Sears Roebuck in high school, he used that experience to work his way through school at Florida State University at various paint and decorating retailers. Shortly after relocating to Boston, he worked for an established commercial paint supplier, where he met many of his future teammates at Select Paint and Finishes. After servicing and building relationships with some of the best painting contractors in Boston, Ryan eventually progressed from the retail side of the painting industry to estimating and managing paint projects. Ryan’s experience working with homeowners and designers in the planning and execution of their projects has given him the skillset to properly plan, estimate and execute some of the most complex and highest profile projects in the Boston area. “Relationships have always been the most important thing to me throughout my career in the construction industry. The fact that everyone that I am working with on a project is considered a teammate is critical. I will make sure that I will do absolutely whatever it takes to make sure that their project a complete success.”
