Daren R. Young

Daren is the founder of DRYCO, developing the business for more than 35 years with a core set of values focused on people first that has led to the retention of a strong team of leaders and employees. Initially, Young worked as a laborer for his father and then started DRYCO in 1985 doing driveways in the Bay Area’s high-end Peninsula residential community. With continuing success, he incorporated in 1988 and has continued growing the business based on the quality of workmanship and a team of employees who take pride in their work—his company stands by its “3R’s” motto: Reliable, Responsible, and Results-driven.

In 2016, he was nominated to be president of The Pavement Network, an exclusive group of nationwide asphalt and concrete industry leaders who provide localized expertise with national coverage. In addition to his professional and volunteer endeavors,
