Weston Zimmerman
CEO and Founder
Weston Zimmerman started in landscaping as a teenager at Tussey Landscaping in central Pennsylvania. Over 15 years he grew to lead crews on award-winning design/build projects while diving deep into operations and leadership.

Now leading SynkedUP, Weston is driven to end entrepreneurial poverty in the trades and help blue-collar contractors build profitable, thriving businesses.
