Meet Our Staff
I received a Bachelor of Science degree in Architecture in 1972 and immediately went to work for a commercial general contractor. For five years I worked as an estimator in Saudi Arabia, and for a long time I’ve specialized in design-build projects; things that have been beneficial knowledge in my 40-year career in the construction industry. My wife Rita and I have six children and 13 grandchildren; they are the joy of our lives. Between church, family, and work, we don’t have much time left, but we wouldn’t have it any other way.

I started working with Garland Contractors in 2017 as the front desk receptionist. In my home life, I enjoy going on hikes with my new husband and our two dogs, working on my wood-burning projects, crafting, and spending time with family and friends.
After a long journey as an EMT, I decided two years ago to go to work for Garland & Associates Contractors as an Assistant Project Manager. During my two years, I have not only learned a lot about commercial construction, but have also learned the importance of integrity, and building relationships that will last a lifetime. In my off time I enjoy camping, woodworking, watching SEC football, and spending time making memories with my family and three dogs.
