Angelo Michilli

President & Chief Executive Officer

Angelo Michilli, a descendant of skilled Italian artisans, inherited the art of luxury craftsmanship from his father. Angelo’s dad led the restoration team to repair the face and skin of the Statue of Liberty in 1985, a project that deepened his appreciation for precision, legacy, and the power of teamwork. Today, he brings that rich heritage into every project Michilli Inc. undertakes, translating timeless Italian elegance into modern luxury. Each detail reflects the company’s dedication to quality and artistry.

Angelo began his career in 1987 at Turner Construction, where he honed his skills on some of New York’s most complex builds. He later founded his first venture, Tectonix, a design-build firm that merged architectural vision with engineering precision. His drive to create spaces that inspire led him to establish Michilli Inc. in 1999, now nationally recognized as a trusted leader in high-end construction with General Contracting licenses in multiple states.

He holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering from Manhattan University and an MBA in Corporate Finance from Pace University. His pedigree as an ornamental craftsman, guided by a strong work ethic and the belief that “our word is our promise,” Angelo embodies the principles that define Michilli’s reputation for excellence, integrity, and respect.

He takes pride in nurturing the next generation of builders, fostering a culture where teamwork and accountability go hand in hand. Outside of work, he enjoys fine food, poetry, art, design, traveling, and soccer.
