Justin Mendes
Installer
Before joining Contexture, Justin worked as a medical practitioner in Orthotics and Prosthetics at Boston Children's Hospital. In October 2021, he decided to switch careers and joined the Carpenters union as an Installer at Contexture. While leaving the patients and office behind was challenging, Justin considers joining the union one of his best decisions. With a strong technical background, Justin plans to introduce some of his LEAN mentality to the construction industry.
Justin has a family consisting of a wife and three daughters. Additionally, his family's home includes cats, chickens, fish, and Guinea pigs—all female. He considers himself outnumbered. Apart from spending time with the family, Justin also enjoys playing poker and cultivating some of the world's hottest peppers, including Carolina reapers, scorpions, habanero, and ghost peppers.
