Sarah Cunningham
General Foreman
As a General Foreman, Sarah is known for always thinking ahead and looking out for everyone’s best interest. She enjoys the camaraderie on the jobsite and the pride that comes from persevering and building something together. A recent project of Sarah's featured a major geothermal energy system, and she used that experience to teach others at GLY about geothermal energy and how different types of systems can be used. Her hobbies include hiking, cycling, gardening, and traveling the world every chance she gets. But her favorite thing? Golden Retrievers!
Melanie Cochrun
Director of Marketing+Communications
CPSM
A healthy dose of serendipity led Melanie from the Peace Corps third world to the A/E/C integrated world, where she discovered a love for working with the people behind the concrete. Nearly 20 years later, she is contributing and receiving ideas and inspiration for marketing, communicating, and developing business as the Director of Marketing + Communications at GLY! A self-described thinker, linker, and obstacle shrinker, Melanie likes to approach her work with these three questions: Who is our audience? What do they need? How can we reach them and develop trust?
Donovan Mabbott
Superintendent
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.
