Butler is a second-generation builder and remodeler from the Northern Virginia suburbs of Washington, D.C. He has served as President of Butler Brothers Corporation since 1984 and has extensive experience in the design, sales and production of residential construction and remodeling.

Butler received a business degree in Real Estate Finance from Virginia Tech and is a
