Sales and Operations Manager

Keagan Aleman

As a third-generation pool builder, Keagan has been around pool construction for as long as he can remember. He grew up learning the trade from the ground up, gaining hands-on experience in excavation, steel, plumbing, electrical, equipment installation, and construction before moving into design, estimating, sales, and project management.

His experience also includes commercial pool maintenance, giving him a unique perspective on building pools that not only look incredible on day one but continue to perform for years to come. At Christopher Ashley Pools, Keagan works closely with every client to transform ideas into thoughtfully designed backyards while ensuring each project is practical, functional, and built with quality in mind. When he’s away from work, he enjoys spending time with his wife and two daughters or chasing bass on Texas lakes.

Michael Burnham

Project Manager

Michael has spent most of his career working with concrete and shotcrete. He began by traveling the country creating realistic habitats, rock formations, and waterfalls for zoos, casinos, and other large-scale projects. He later managed geotechnical and structural shotcrete work.

Michael brought that experience into the pool industry, working in gunite, construction supervision, and project management before joining Christopher Ashley Pools. His combination of structural knowledge, artistic experience, and hands-on pool construction helps homeowners create backyards that are not only beautiful, but built correctly and designed to last. Outside of work, Michael enjoys competing in disc golf tournaments.

Brandon Salinas

Co-Owner

Brandon began his construction career traveling across the country and working in storm-damaged areas. In 2009, he and his wife, Monica, founded Ranger Concrete Contractors. What began as a small residential concrete company grew into a full-service commercial operation.

He then founded Christopher Ashley Pools with his wife in 2019. Brandon’s deep understanding of concrete, construction management, and business growth gives Christopher Ashley Pools a strong technical foundation. For homeowners, that experience means thoughtful planning, dependable execution, and a pool built with the same attention to structure as it is to appearance.

Monica Salinas

Co-Owner

Monica co-founded Ranger Concrete Contractors with Brandon in 2009, shortly after the couple married and while they were preparing to welcome their first child. From the beginning, she played a central role in transforming the company from a home-based startup into a respected, family-operated concrete contractor.

At Christopher Ashley Pools, Monica brings that same care, organization, and commitment to making every client feel supported throughout the process.
