Robert Coronado

Choate Construction

My name is Roberto Carlos Coronado, and I work as an Assistant Project Manager at Choate Construction, a general contractor in six states. I am located in the Nashville office. I grew up in a small Bordertown town called Douglas, Arizona. My parents migrated from Mexico to Arizona before I was born so I am a first-generation US born citizen. My father owned a painting contracting business mainly focused on commercial and residential construction. This sparked my interest in the construction world which led me to obtain my Civil Engineering Degree from Northern Arizona University which shifted my focus to managing construction projects. I have been fortunate enough to be involved in various types of projects including multi-family, religious centers, dealerships, higher education, and commercial buildings. The Nashville market was the biggest driver in moving across the country for personal and professional growth. I am a huge advocate for helping others in overcoming challenges. On my free time I enjoy playing and making music, another reason why I was drawn to Nashville. Connect with Robert HERE.
