Dennis O. Kane

Founder | President | Chief Executive Officer

The Kane family has maintained a prominent leadership role in the Baltimore-Washington business community for over 90 years spanning three generations.  As such, Dennis Kane was initially content with continuing that legacy in his father’s thriving transportation business fresh out of college.  But, the young Mr. Kane soon realized that he desired something else from his career and thought he could accomplish more as an entrepreneur to actually grow the family brand in other areas.

His approach would be to get into a field where his creative efforts and drive could leverage and broaden the services offered under the family brand while carving his own niche in the process.  An entry-level position in the estimating department of a local general contractor led to a position at a competing firm as a project manager.  Within three years he was named a vice president of the established 125-employee firm.  In positions of increasing responsibility, for the next seven years he worked to develop a plan to create a firm based on the basic principles of leadership, experience and integrity that he learned from his upbringing as one of nine children in a strict business oriented family.  In 1997, he founded E.I. Kane Construction, Inc.  – which he named in honor of his father.

While the firm has grown substantially in size and capabilities from the early days, Mr. Kane remains actively involved in all areas of the business setting the overall vision and ensuring that the three founding principles are maintained.  He represents the firm at various industry and association events while keeping actively involved in a number of charitable, social and youth athletic organizations.  He resides in Potomac, MD with his wife and three young sons.
