Meet the team

Mr. W. H. Roletter embarked on his professional journey at the age of thirteen in Philadelphia. Over the years, he has delved into a diverse array of business concepts and structures. A proud graduate of the University of Miami (Class of '06), he holds a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration and Accounting.His extensive travels across the country have exposed him to both the for-profit and non-profit sectors. 

In 2009, W. H. joined forces with Paul Rowe, recognizing Paul’s exceptional talent and skill. Together, they laid the foundation for their first company, which, five years later, was thriving with two full-time crews.

In 2014, they made the move to Key West, where they took time to unwind, acclimate, and immerse themselves in the island’s unique culture—a culture that beckons us all to call it home. Both W. H. and Paul explored career paths in hotels, hospitality, and nautical ventures. As the saying goes, “tigers can’t change their stripes.” In 2019, W. H. dusted off his home office and embarked on a new venture: Manifested Concepts, LLC.

W. H. brings a distinctive blend of practical and professional skills to the company. His approach to managing staff and employees attracts some of the most talented and dedicated individuals in their respective fields. His empathy for the customer experience and cost considerations ensures regular satisfaction among clients. While overseeing all aspects of the back office, he remains no stranger to the field. His unique ability to view projects from both perspectives allows Manifested Concepts, LLC to deliver exceptional and one-of-a-kind results.

Paul Andrew Rowe embarked on his educational journey in the building trades during the summer of 1990. Observing his father establish Rowe Construction in 1988 and build a successful business, Paul eagerly joined the workforce at the age of 12, earning $2 per hour. Over the next six summers, he dedicated himself to his father’s Central Pennsylvania-based construction company, which continues to thrive after more than 35 years.

In September 1996, Paul left home for Paris Island, South Carolina, where he began a remarkable seven-year tenure in the United States Marine Corps, earning two honorable discharges. Following his military service, he pursued higher education at Penn State before eventually settling in Philadelphia. There, he founded Rowe Homes, a construction company that flourished under his leadership.

Paul’s journey took an exciting turn when he met his future husband. Together, they transformed Rowe Homes into a successful enterprise with two crews and six employees on payroll. In spring 2014, after a day trip to Key West, Paul and William made a life-changing decision: they packed up their belongings and relocated to paradise. In 2020, Paul successfully passed all three exams required to obtain his Florida State Certified Building Contractors certification, a milestone officially achieved in August 2023.

Paul’s wealth of construction experience significantly contributes to Manifested Concepts and the Florida Keys. His formative years were spent immersed in his family’s construction business, where he diligently honed his skills. Although he initially considered becoming an architect, Paul gained practical experience by spending two years framing and finishing homes in State College, followed by a year working with drywall. His nearly ten-year tenure in Philadelphia, where he managed his own small construction company, allowed him to work on historic homes and buildings, providing invaluable insights into preservation and structural understanding.

Paul’s relentless dedication and expertise position him as a valuable asset within Manifested Concepts, LLC.
