Brad is a licensed Civil Engineer with a BSCE from Gonzaga University, but after a few years working in that discipline in Denver, he returned to the PNW to earn a Construction Management certificate from the University of Washington and joined GLY in 2008. His technical engineering skills continue to serve him well in his role as a Senior Project Engineer. He excels in coordinating structural work and large tenant build-outs for healthcare, residential, hospitality, and office high-rise projects. Brad and his family spend their leisure time exploring the world and tackling daunting athletic challenges.

Final: Over the last 30 years, Donovan’s appreciation for quality craftsmanship combined with his natural ability to manage the many moving parts and pieces of a construction jobsite from start to finish has garnered trust and respect from GLY employees, trade partners, and clients. From interior build-outs to full campus developments, he approaches each project by tapping into each team member’s strengths, talents, and skillsets to develop a thoughtful plan—together. Witnessing that plan unfold successfully is his favorite part of his job. On the home front, there is never a dull moment with his four kids, granddaughter, and three dogs—each bringing joy to the family with their own unique personalities. Skylar, the littlest pup, runs the pack.

Joe is a self-motivated, engaging and results-driven construction professional with over 30 years of planning, scheduling, value engineering, and estimating experience on high profile and complex construction projects. His years and variety of experience in the industry makes him a valuable member of the GLY team. He can tackle whatever scope of work is required. His work experience throughout the United States [OR, CA, NV, FL, MD, NJ, NY…to name a few] has taught him there’s no place like home. Joe has four children with his wife—and high school sweetheart—and loves to go hunting and fishing whenever he can.

Born and raised in Mercer Island and a graduate of University of Washington, Lauren is truly a local and proud to call Seattle her home. After earning her BS in Construction Management, she immediately joined GLY to do what she loves most: build! Focused and confident, Lauren never misses a beat even during the busiest phases of a project. Her keen eye for detail also never waivers, but this comes naturally to her. It is no surprise that her first job was performing quality control checks at a pear orchard.

Kyle joined the GLY team immediately after earning a BS in Construction Management from the University of Washington in 2006. His honesty and affability have been a mainstay, and he takes a forthright approach to resolving issues and ensuring client satisfaction. After all these years, he still looks forward the unique challenges that come with each individual project and appreciates that no two days are ever alike. While things keep him on his toes at the jobsite, Kyle unwinds by listening to his favorite CDs and records or going to live concerts. Music just sounds better when it’s an experience!
