My passion for building homes began when I was very young. As a child I spent every Sunday night glued to the television watching “Extreme Makeover – Home Edition.” Although nobody in my family was involved in the industry, I knew early on that homebuilding was a field I wanted to pursue. I had some amazing opportunities to go on mission trips with my youth group where I got my hands dirty and built homes for the less fortunate. These experiences fueled my passion for home building and led me to East Carolina University, where I graduated with a degree in Construction Management. As an estimator with Structures, I love seeing our clients’ house plans evolve into the perfect space for them and their family. Using my problem solving skills and my keen eye for detail to accurately price projects, I love taking on the challenge of keeping clients within their budget without losing the function or aesthetics of their dream home.

Charleston was always one of my favorite cities to visit while growing up in North Carolina, and I knew it was the place I would plant my roots after college. I love everything about Charleston, from its beautiful beaches to the culinary scene downtown and the historic architecture. The opportunity to work for an amazing company like Structures and build beautiful homes in my favorite city is a dream come true.
