Ron was educated at Syracuse University in Syracuse, New York where he graduated with a BA/MA with concentrations in Economics, History and Russian Studies. Ron learned the trade of home building while working for a builder and land surveyor early in his career. He built his first home in 1994. As well as building residential homes, Marra Homes & Development built the Salt Shed for the town of Southbury and offers such other services as tiling, light industrial construction, roads, remodeling and complete site work for homes.

Over the years, Marra Homes & Development has established strong working relationships with its sub-contractors. Continuing to use only the "best of the best" to ensure customer satisfaction, maintaining the highest quality workmanship is part of the company philosophy. The full-time site supervisor organizes and oversees daily operations at residential building sites, while a full-time office manager handles the everyday administrative duties and offers support in making the operation run smoothly.

Currently, Marra Homes & Development is offering several beautiful sites/homes located in the newest developments of Woodbury — Scuppo Hill, Curtiss Hill and Curtiss Woods. With a prime location, these subdivisions are minutes from all major routes and town centers. Scuppo Hill is located just minutes from exit 16 off of Interstate 84. Curtiss Hill and Curtiss Woods are located on the Southbury/Woodbury town line, just five minutes from exit 15 off of Interstate 84. All three subdivisions offer an ideal location for commuting.
