Our Partnerships & Associations

Rodger Bressi

President

Rodger Bressi has served as President of Rooftops Silicone Distributors, Inc. since 2013, overseeing the company’s operations, growth, and continued development. Under his leadership, the company has experienced steady expansion and strengthened its operational foundation, guided by disciplined execution and long-term business planning.

The Bressi family, with longstanding ties to St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, relocated to the island in 1960, when Rodger was two years old. He was raised on St. Croix and attended school on the island, developing a strong connection to the local community and business environment.

Rodger began his career in the construction industry working alongside his father, where he gained hands-on experience across multiple trades and developed a comprehensive understanding of construction operations, project execution, and business management. This early exposure to both the technical and commercial sides of the industry provided a strong foundation for his professional growth. Over time, that experience led him to branch out independently, resulting in the ownership and operation of multiple businesses across his career.

With decades of experience spanning construction and business operations, Rodger brings a practical, straightforward approach to leadership, with a strong emphasis on top-quality work, sustainability, expert craftsmanship, and ethical business practices. These principles guide decision-making at every level of the organization and have played a central role in shaping Rooftops’ reputation and long-term direction.

Outside of work, Rodger has a longstanding interest in music, guitars, and automobiles.

Shirley serves as Director of Administration and Finance at Rooftops, bringing more than 30 years of experience across accounting, finance, business operations, construction administration, safety compliance, human resources, and management. Her career spans both U.S. corporations and local companies on St. Croix, with extensive professional experience across the East Coast and West Coast supporting complex, multi-site operations.

A graduate of St. Croix Central High School (Class of 1983), Shirley earned her Associate of Science in Accounting from Ashworth University, where she was recognized with Delta Epsilon Tau Honor Society distinction. Her technical expertise includes general and project accounting, payroll and payroll taxes, accounts payable and receivable, financial reporting, auditing, US GAAP, PCAOB standards, procurement, and operational compliance.

Shirley has held senior roles in construction and industrial environments, including Accounting Manager, Project Accounting Lead, Construction Administration Manager, Office Manager, and Safety Analyst. Her background includes hands-on leadership in construction administration management, safety analysis, HR management, accounting cleanup, and operational oversight, with deep proficiency in enterprise systems such as SAP, Oracle, Sage, PeopleSoft, ADP, Procore, and OpenText. She has also supported OSHA compliance, safety training programs, and served on Safety Steering Committees for large-scale projects.

When the opportunity to return home presented itself, Shirley chose to bring her extensive expertise back to St. Croix, contributing to the island’s growing business community through disciplined financial leadership, operational excellence, and a steadfast commitment to integrity. At Rooftops, she plays a critical role in strengthening financial controls, supporting project operations, and ensuring organizational stability and growth.

Sam was introduced to the construction and roofing industry at an early age through his father, the owner of Kimmel Construction on St. Croix. Working alongside his father, Sam gained hands-on experience across multiple trades. He later continued working with his father in the family’s roofing business in Tucson, further strengthening his technical skills and operational knowledge.

After completing high school, Sam founded his own roofing company, SK Metals, where he served as Owner and President. He successfully owned and operated the business for more than 18 years, building extensive experience in roofing operations, project execution, business management, and client service, while establishing a strong reputation for quality workmanship.

Sam is a proud father to his son, Cohen Kimmel, and returning to the U.S. Virgin Islands had long been a personal and professional goal. He planned to return to St. Croix once his son completed college—a goal fulfilled this year when he accepted a leadership role with Rooftops.

As Director of Roofing Operations, Sam brings decades of hands-on experience, operational leadership, and deep industry expertise, supporting high standards of quality, efficiency, and craftsmanship across all roofing operations.

Sam enjoys spending time with his wife Amy and their Doberman, Bowser, coaching youth basketball, motorcycles, spending time on the water—including fishing, boating, and water sports—and volunteering in support of U.S. veterans.
