Headshot of Jon Friedrichsen

Jon Friedrichsen

Project Executive

HCC

Jon attributes his appreciation of craft and hard work to working as a carpenter for a Spokane-based general contractor while earning a BS in Construction Management from Washington State University. Since joining GLY in 1999, he’s honed his expertise as a healthcare and high-tech office project manager and team builder. When he’s not piecing together complex logistics plans, you’ll find Jon cheering on the Seattle Sounders or casting a line. If he could talk his wife into selling everything and living in a trailer down by the river, he’d be there already.

Rick Thompson

General Foreman

As a professional in the industry for more than 50 years, Rick shares advice that has served him well in life: “Love what you do and treat everyone the way you want to be treated.” As a General Foreman at GLY, he finds great satisfaction in working with clients and seeing what the team has accomplished at the end of each day. Building is Rick’s lifelong passion, and it extends into his hobbies as well. You can usually find him in his home shop, where he builds exotic furniture, restores old motorcycles, and crafts his own fishing lures and setups. He also spends time preparing his gear for his favorite seasons—spring and fall—when he takes his fishing boat out on the Puget Sound or heads into the outdoors to enjoy hunting.

Ruby Kahnberg

Project Engineer

Ruby brings a well-rounded perspective to her role as a Project Engineer, combining an academic background in architecture and construction management with hands-on experience working for electrical contractors. She is passionate about the built environment and values the balance between thoughtful design and practical constructability. Outside of work, she enjoys embroidering, thrifting, dancing, and sketching around the Seattle area – often finishing her drawings over a glass of wine.

Michelle Connor

Business Equity Specialist

Since joining GLY in 2019 as a Project Coordinator, Michelle steadily assumed more and more responsibilities, eventually combining her personal interest in DEI with our clients' goals for trade equity. Naturally she signed up for our corporate DEI Committee, where she continues to make a valuable impact. As our Business Equity Specialist, Michelle provides project team guidance and support to achieve MWSBE and apprenticeship utilization goals, develops community engagement initiatives, and maintains ongoing community and industry involvement to deepen relationships within the public sector and ensure current knowledge of local, state, and federal regulation for adhering to contract requirements. When she’s not busy chasing her turbo-charged toddler, she’s dreaming up new book club picks that will either dazzle her coworkers or make them question her taste in literature.

Israel Bolechala

General Foreman

Israel brings over 20 years of experience in commercial construction, tenant improvements, and healthcare environments, managing complex projects from bid through closeout. A proud member of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters & Joiners of America, Local 360, Israel values craftsmanship, accountability, and teamwork on every jobsite. Outside of work, he enjoys fishing, camping, traveling to support his children’s club lacrosse, and has a lifelong connection to the trades, with all of his brothers also working in construction. He also played collegiate football at California Lutheran University and later for the Pierce County Bengals.

Jeff Crawford

Principal+Healthcare/Life Science

Jeff is a Principal at GLY and leads the firm’s healthcare and life science market sector. He specializes in alternative delivery models and brings strong expertise in preconstruction planning and estimating for everything from large hospital campus expansions to critical equipment replacement. With a BA in Architectural Studies from the University of Washington and nearly two decades at GLY, Jeff combines his design background with project management skills to guide teams on highly technical, complex facilities. Outside of work, he enjoys playing basketball, running, and hiking with his family.

Sean Royal

Project Engineer

Sean recently joined GLY after completing two internships which gave him firsthand experience on high-stakes projects in the construction industry. With a degree in Construction Engineering Technology, he brings a solid foundation of technical knowledge and hands-on experience to his role as Project Engineer. In this capacity, he handles key responsibilities in trade management, overseeing work scopes, ensuring quality and safety compliance, and supporting project scheduling and budgeting. A Kirkland native, Sean enjoys spending his free time on Lake Washington, hitting the golf course, or experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen.
