At House to Home Solutions, we believe exceptional craftsmanship begins with investing in people. That’s why Daniel has long been passionate about Workforce Development within the Professional Remodeling Industry and helping inspire the next generation of skilled trades professionals.
Daniel currently serves as Chairman of Workforce Development for the Professional Remodeling Organization (PRO) Mid-Atlantic and sits on the Board of the PRO National Workforce Development Foundation, as well as the Construction Trades Foundation (CTF). Through these organizations, he has worked to strengthen awareness, education, and opportunities surrounding careers in the skilled trades — an industry that continues to offer rewarding, lifelong career paths.
One of the most inspiring examples of this mission in action is the annual Student Built House Project led by the Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) Construction Trades Foundation. This remarkable program gives architecture and construction trade students the opportunity to design and build a home entirely from the ground up — providing invaluable real-world experience that simply cannot be replicated in a classroom.
This year’s project carried especially deep meaning. The home’s design was created by architecture student Marian Espinoza, whose work was selected shortly before his tragic passing. At just 19 years old, Marian left behind an extraordinary legacy through his creativity, talent, and passion for architecture. The 2025 home was named “YA44” — recognizing both the 50th anniversary of the program and the 44th student-built home completed through this incredible initiative.
This past Tuesday, May 26th, Daniel was honored to attend the Cornerstone Open House Ceremony, where students, instructors, community leaders, and supporters gathered to celebrate the completion of the home. MCPS Superintendent Dr. Thomas Taylor joined the ceremony to recognize the achievements of the students involved and set the commemorative Cornerstone. Over 600 students participated in various aspects of the project over the course of two years, gaining hands-on experience in architecture, construction, project management, and skilled trades.
Programs like this are critical to the future of our industry. Beyond teaching technical skills, they help young adults develop confidence, discipline, teamwork, and problem-solving abilities that will serve them throughout their lives — whether they pursue careers in construction or apply these lessons elsewhere.
At House to Home Solutions, we are proud to support initiatives that elevate the skilled trades and create meaningful opportunities for future generations. The craftsmanship, dedication, and teamwork displayed by these students are a powerful reminder that the future of our industry is bright.
We extend our congratulations to every student, instructor, sponsor, and volunteer who helped bring this project to life.
Daniel and his team assisted with interior design and material and fixture selection and acquisition. As well as finding sponsors to donate materials and fixtures for the house build. Many Sponsors helped this year by contributing materials to the house build. A special thanks to Delta/Brizo, Bellwith Keeler Hardware, ABW Appliances, Conestoga Tile, Next Floor, Rosel-Heck, Ferguson, Scantinique Home, PRO Metro DC and House to Home Solutions for your contributions. Programs like this get little assistance from the state and county school system and need donations and volunteers to make the program possible. If you are interested in helping out please reach out to Daniel.
