HUMBLE BEGINNINGS TO HOLLYWOOD GOLD
“ My Dad is a risk taker and he instilled that in me . I mean , he had six children and he quits his stable job to start a paving company ”
– Dave Turin
Inspired by the Hoffman ’ s dream of mining for gold , Dave was offered the chance to join the team full time . He hasn ’ t looked back since .
Natural born leader Despite not having years of experience in mining , Turin makes up for it with his expertise in earthworks . He has over two decades experience operating construction equipment safety and effectively , and there isn ’ t a piece of machinery he isn ’ t qualified to operate .
However , it ’ s his natural leadership ability that solidifies his importance .
“ At a very young age my Dad saw leadership qualities in me ,” explains Turin . “ He made me the paving boss when I was senior in High School because he could see my potential . That ’ s how I view people . I think when you see the potential in people , rather than the negatives , you have the patience to train them accordingly .” Turin ’ s guidance has made him a vital asset to the Hoffman crew ,
