ANTHONY ABRUZZO

Founder and President of Forza Design & Consulting Inc. Anthony attended the University of Illinois at Chicago and received a Bachelor’s Degree in Arts and Architecture. Anthony then pursued a Master’s Degree in Architecture, moving him another step closer to a career in design and construction.

After working for several design firms, he began his small consulting firm in 2004, which led to an extensive track record of achievement in complex design/build projects. In addition, being elected to the Melrose Park Village Board in 2009 is one of his most notable accomplishments. Since his election, Anthony has worked hard to acquire a deeper understanding of government and its operations by serving on various Village Boards, such as the Zoning Board and the Finance Committee, to name a few. Not only has he proven himself a dedicated public official, he is also a good neighbor. Anthony Abruzzo’s philosophy is rooted in his architecture background, “Government is fundamentally similar to a structure; it has needs, demands and limits. Government, just like a structure, starts with a foundation; if not strong it cannot flourish.”
