The OPPO Team
Joe Peterchak and Brian O’Connell, Principals
Just like the homes they build together, Brian and Joe’s partnership is also founded in quality. Friends for decades, both have lived in the western suburbs of Chicago for many years, where they take pride in their relationships with the community.
They have 35 years of combined commercial and residential real estate experience including investment properties, renovations, custom builds, and property management. Their eye for the real estate market, Joe’s expertise as a licensed Illinois real estate broker, and Brian’s background in finance and real estate help them select homes that balance location and value to ensure you maximize your investment. Their long-term affiliations with trade specialists and suppliers allows OPPO the ability to provide their clients with the best workmanship possible at the fairest prices.

Patty Burke, Project Manager
Patty oversees many aspects of OPPO’s project management process, including the project timeline, scheduling, budget, and facilitating any loans and payments. She uses her supreme organizational skills and attention to detail to make sure that each project goes as smoothly and efficiently as possible.

Darlene Stirn, Architect
Darlene has specialized in thoughtful design, adaptation, and renovation of homes for more than 20 years. She is passionate about building and reinvigorating homes for families, and her mission is to listen to and incorporate your needs into the design so that your vision comes to life on paper.
Melanie Lee, Interior Designer
Melanie loves creating cohesive and on-trend interior design that is unique to each of her clients. With design budgets both big and small, her approach expertly marries the big-picture concepts, such as space planning and layout, with the finer details, such as window treatments, furniture and accessories. Melanie’s passion is meeting each individual’s needs while creating a one-of-kind sense of home.
Tonia Bentley-Dean, Interior Designer
Tonia believes that your home should be a reflection of you and your family. Born in England, she has traveled the world soaking up different cultures and their design influences and brings a global perspective to any design solution. Having lived in several period homes, she also has a passion for renovation and loves an opportunity to incorporate vintage with more contemporary design. Tonia creates living spaces that permeate classic simplicity — that never go out of ‘style’ or incorporate temporary trendy fads.
