We're proud of our recent renovation at Georgia State University 11th floor at 55 Park Place in downtown Atlanta. This project designed by CBRE l HEERY included over 27,000 SF of high-end “corporate” classroom space to expand the Robinson College of Business. Our team previously renovated the entire 12th floor, a similar program for RCB, so you can imagine how excited we were to be selected for this phase, too…it’s always good to finish what you’ve started!

What’s your construction specialty?
I primarily assist project managers with RFIs, submittals, scheduling, and coordinating subcontractors.
What attracted you to the construction industry?
I’ve always been interested in the process of building and enjoy the satisfaction of seeing all the different trades and components come together to create a final product.
What was the most memorable construction project you’ve ever worked on?
Renovating the public spaces and adding restaurants to the Omni Hotel in downtown Atlanta while keeping the hotel open and functioning. The most memorable activity on this job was removing giant stone wall panels a few stories up right next to the street during rush hour to create a restaurant balcony.
What advice would you give someone who wanted to enter the construction field?
Never be afraid to ask questions and listen to advise from people with more experience and knowledge than you. That’s the way I’ve learned the most!

I spent a summer hiking over 300 miles in New Mexico during college.

Our team is hard at work creating a new entrance from the greenway level, including a lobby, monumental stairs, and a pair of elevators. The exterior will be clad in a glass curtainwall and limestone and the roof will have a landscaped patio. We can't wait to see the transformation of this space!

Our team did an awesome job on this classroom wing addition at Westminster Presbyterian. This project included a new block, brick, steel, and precast construction to match the existing structure. The new building consists of three classrooms, two restrooms, and one divisible group meeting room.

What’s your construction specialty?
Millwork / Cabinetry
What attracted you to the construction industry?
I started out of high school doing HVAC and then drywall. What attracted me to construction was when I went to work in a cabinet shop, is where I found my love for construction. I went from simply sanding doors to installing cabinets in a few short years. I installed commercial and residential cabinets for over 10 years.
What was the most memorable construction project you’ve ever worked on?
The Court of Appeals in Atlanta. I remodeled a Judge’s Chamber that had an extensive millwork package. The building itself is over 115 years old, so all the existing woodwork was hand carved.
What advice would you give someone who wanted to enter the construction field?
Communication and attention to detail are the keys to being successful in this industry. Create a good work ethic and be proud to be a construction worker!

When I’m not at work, I enjoy spending as much time with my son as I can.

We're looking forward to the opening of the Omni Atlanta Hotel at CNN Center in Downtown Atlanta. This has been an exciting project and we're incredibly proud of the transformative final product. We couldn't have done it without our design team – locally C+TC Design Studio and Dallas, Texas-based Waldrop + Nichols Studio.
What’s your construction specialty?
I’m currently an intern in Preconstruction for commercial construction. I also do various project management tasks.
What attracted you to the construction industry?
I have always had an interest in buildings and seeing how every structure has its own character - from building with Legos when I was younger to studying ancient Greek and Roman structures. I took an architecture class in high school where we worked with AutoCAD and Revit to design buildings, then I chose a construction field when joining the military. I think I was just always meant to be in some sort of construction.
What was the most memorable construction project you’ve ever worked on?
I am very new to the construction field but the construction project that I will remember for a long time will be an interior renovation of the Omni Hotel @ the CNN Center. This project is important to me because I was invested in it from the beginning. I assisted in the initial preconstruction phase of this project. Once awarded, I went on to assist the Project Management team and Field Supervision team in daily responsibilities. I got to price and assist in the building of this project from start to finish. I got to work with the subcontractors and see how the Jobsite runs. Most of the time after preconstruction is done and you hand off a project, your job is done - but with this one, I got to work in every aspect of the process. It was fantastic!
What advice would you give someone who wanted to enter the construction field?
Keep an open mind. Growing up, I didn’t know exactly what a general contractor did. I just figured it was one superintendent, the subcontractors, and they got the work done. There is a lot of people behind the scenes and if they weren't there, it would make it impossible to complete the project! Construction is not just swinging a hammer at a nail. There is an art to it, and so many job fields within it that could interest people. So explore the industry! You might be pleasantly surprised at what you find.

When I was 15, I told my older sister to come with me on a road trip (I only had a Learners Permit, so I needed someone with a license). I drove to Alabama to meet up with a farmer and bought a pygmy goat. I put him in my backyard and acted surprised when my parents brought it up. I named him Boomer and he is still part of the family to this day.
