NAME: Paul Messineo, Jr

TITLE: Business Development Manager, Associate

OFFICE: Pittsburgh, PA

YEARS AT A + S: 15

Tell us a little about yourself. Family, hobbies, etc.

I’m a professional engineer, and I have a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering and a Masters in Business Administration from the University of Pittsburgh. I went to Pittsburgh Central Catholic High School (Pro Football Hall of Fame Quarterback Dan Marino was a senior when I was a freshman). Terri and I celebrated 30 years of marriage this year (time flies). We have 3 sons (Paul III, Brandon, Jordan). I like to travel (especially to the ocean and Disney World), attend Pittsburgh Steelers and Pitt Football games, golf, read books, and visit with family and friends.

Allen + Shariff is known for its long-lasting client relationships over the years. How do you think about client relationships when it comes to the day-to-day workflow?

Every day, we should all be thinking about how to serve our existing clients, and who can be our new clients.

What is your favorite thing about working at Allen + Shariff?

The people. They are truly nice people, and they work hard to keep our clients happy.

What has you the most excited about where Allen + Shariff is going in the future?

Mission 2030. It’s exciting to see in which new cities we will establish offices.

What is your definition of success?

Achieving most of the goals you set for yourself. You need to have a variety of goals (business and personal).

What is one of your favorite memories from working here?

The White Elephant gift exchange. It always makes me laugh when our team opens these gifts.  My favorite is the blow-up horse that David Price got. I really wanted that horse.

Tell me about a compliment that you received that you’re most proud of.

A client said I can always trust you to do what you say.

What did you want to be when you were younger? 

An astronaut.

What is your favorite movie? 

Back to the Future (all three of them) and all the Indiana Jones movies.

What is something unique about you (a fun fact) that few people are aware of?

I attended only one Kentucky Derby (1973). The winning horse was Secretariat, possibly the greatest horse of all time. Also, I sat about 10 rows from Secretariat’s owner (check out the Disney movie on this horse). I must be in the video somewhere.
