As new members of the Columbus Chamber, we are looking forward to connecting with fellow movers and shakers in the Columbus business world and discovering opportunities to continue to make our community a great place to work, live, and grow.

How do you stay engaged with trends that you see in your industry?

We read all that we can about our industry, the markets we serve, and the world in general. Each of our leadership team members are involved in industry-specific associations, whether that be in construction, development, or property management. We find great value in regularly meeting and talking with colleagues and partners to spark new ideas and receive fresh perspectives on challenges. We are constantly looking at financial projections and modeling to successfully drive a disciplined process of controlling the things we can and planning for those we can’t.

What is your company culture like?

We live our Core Values in everything that we do and that starts with leading by example from the top down and only working with external partners who also share our Core Values. We strive to provide an outstanding, high-energy, and growth-focused environment for our employees, along with promotional, coaching, and mentoring opportunities available for every single employee in our Company.
