They are the builders, the thinkers, and the problem-solvers. In the "Defined by Doing" series, we highlight exceptional alumni who are translating their education into action and redefining what is possible in their fields. From recent graduates to seasoned industry leaders, these stories prove that the Wentworth community is making a meaningful impact at every stage of the journey.
Today, we're proud to feature Josué Velney ('21), President and CEO of Velney Development!
A U.S. Marine Corps veteran and former Somerville fire lieutenant, Josué utilized his Wentworth Construction Management degree to scale his real estate development business from local two-unit projects to massive 250-unit complexes. As a service-disabled veteran business owner, he is transforming the Greater Boston community, and he says he doesn't see a ceiling in sight.

I'd like to express my heartfelt thanks to Wentworth Institute of Technology and my peers on selecting me for 2023's Alumni Entrepreneurship Award.
The truth is none of this would be possible without the support and guidance from my professors Carl Person, Leslie Tuplin, Wayne DelPico, my family and loving wife, Shamiah.
