Principal+Operations

LEED Green Associate

A Northwest native, Bryan embodies GLY’s collaborative, community-centered approach. As a Principal of the firm and our Operations Leader, he oversees GLY’s people resources, processes, and field labor delivery, working closely with salaried and craft team members, human resources, safety, and the Tool + Equipment Yard to ensure operational excellence across the company.

In years prior, Bryan specialized in delivering projects within occupied senior living and other sensitive environments, and continues to provide strategic support to teams working in those market sectors. Today, he also leads GLY’s Sustainability Advocacy Group, helping to identify and implement strategies that reduce the firm’s operational carbon footprint.

Beyond the workplace, Bryan is deeply involved with the Washington State chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association, where he has served in a variety of board roles for over a decade. He and his family love taking advantage of the Pacific Northwest outdoors — boating in the summer and skiing in the winter.

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.

It’s no wonder that Laura’s passion is helping people find their potential. She’s worked hard to creatively forge her own career path and achieve her goals. She is active in a number of industry groups and peer networks focused on green building and leads GLY’s internal sustainability efforts. Her background as a Project Manager allows her to connect with clients and project teams to drive sustainability project goals while keeping budget and schedule at the forefront. Laura brings her love of responsible practices [and infectious good spirits] to every project.
