THE TILTON TEAM
BILLY ROBERTI
Director of Operations
Billy Roberti joins Tilton Coffered Ceilings, Inc. after a successful 22-year career on Wall Street. During this time, Billy worked at top financial firms including Cantor Fitzgerald, Merrill Lynch, and ISI Group; he specialized in fixed-income brokering and trading, equity sales and trading, and relationship growth and development.
As a result, Billy brings the experience and expertise to our decorative ceiling company that he accumulated during a long and varied career in the financial industry. This includes, but is not limited to, many years of success in pursuing, developing, and maintaining mutually profitable relationships with clients.
Billy and Jason Tilton first met in 2006 when he became a client of Jason’s high-end Molding & Millwork business. Their shared commitment to great business practices and the strong relationship they developed over the years is what led them to ultimately team up on the Tilton Coffered Ceilings endeavor.
In 2012, Billy became an active partner in Tilton Coffered Ceilings, Inc. and was appointed Director of Operations. In this role, Billy is a primary point of contact for existing clients and new business relationships. He also manages the day-to-day activities that are critical to the growth and success of the Tilton Coffered Ceilings enterprise.
SCOTT HALFORD
Director of Information Technology
As a consulting IT expert, Scott Halford has been instrumental in designing, testing and integrating the technical systems that underlie the Tilton Coffered Ceilings enterprise. In the summer of 2012 he officially joined the team as IT Manager of our decorative ceiling company.
Scott’s background makes him perfectly suited for this position – unlike most IT managers, he can draw upon years of experience and firsthand knowledge of the practicalities of coffered ceiling fabrication and installation. From 2006 to 2008 Scott exercised his trade skills as a Lead Finish Carpenter with Jason Tilton’s high-end Molding & Millwork business. In this role, Scott worked on a variety of premium interior remodeling projects, which included many coffered ceilings.
After completing his graduate studies in computer science, Scott moved on from carpentry to work as a Network and Systems Specialist at the Patchogue-Medford School District on Long Island, New York. During Scott’s time working in education, he and Jason continued the productive relationship they had established at Fanatic Finish, but with Scott supporting the company’s technical requirements rather than working on client installations.
As an experienced and trusted team member, Scott was the perfect choice to integrate the website, email, telephony and server systems for Tilton Coffered Ceilings, Inc. He also oversees the development and deployment of any and all new technical resources, such as the proprietary Tilton ‘Design & Quote’ software application.
