Construction is a family affair for Thalle Industries CEO Glenn Pacchiana. He followed in the footsteps of his fa- ther and grandfather before him, learn- ing every nook and cranny of the busi- ness as a Thalle employee for more than 30 years. As CEO, Pacchiana works hard to build his business while protecting the environment. Pacchiana has champi- oned environmentally friendly policies at Thalle, including the construction of one of New York State’s first green quar- ries, in Fishkill, planting trees alongside the mining process. He also oversaw the creation of the Hudson Valley’s first zero-emissions asphalt plant of its kind and the establishment of the Elmsford Virtual Quarry. Pacchiana and his com- pany were honored by the NY League of Conservation Voters for their environ- mental work — the first time the advoca- cy organization had ever conferred that honor to someone in the mining-and- construction industry. Pacchiana is also the recipient of the “Best Green Friend Award” by the Friends of Westchester County Parks. —PA

Maggie Timoney
CEO
Heineken USA
There is more to Maggie Timoney than being the first-ever female CEO of Heineken USA. Hailing from County Mayo, Ireland, Timoney helped auction cattle and sheep when she was fresh out of high school. This experience led her to recognize the intrinsic value each person brings to a company, setting her down a path of astonishing success. Kicking off her career with Heineken in 1998, Timoney worked as a national sales plan- ning manager before transferring to the Netherlands in 2001. In 2010, she returned to Heineken USA as senior vice presi- dent of human resources before taking up the helm of Heineken Ireland as CEO, smashing previous benchmarks of vol- ume, revenue, market targets, and profit. She was named CEO of Heineken USA in 2018. Westchester has a special place in Timoney’s heart: She is a graduate of Iona College, where she received both her Bachelor of Arts and Master of Business Administration degrees. —CC
