Jake Reinhard
Project Manager
Benji Dimer
Project Manager
LEED Green Associate
Since joining GLY in 2017, Benji has distinguished himself as a trustworthy team leader who is continuously learning all he can. He is often the first to arrive and last to leave—by choice!—as he truly enjoys his work and is always willing to take on new challenges, mentor others, and push himself to keep learning and growing. Benji can also often be found biking and enjoying the outdoors.
Spencer Eble
Project Manager
LEED AP
Project teams benefit from Spencer’s hit-the-ground-running attitude and determination in finding the best solutions for the task at hand. His natural ability to facilitate a collaborative environment by asking questions and bouncing ideas off team members often results in creative solutions for the tasks at hand. He enjoys applying many of the same concepts to parenting, as he raises three young children with his wife Taylor.
Annika Gaffney
Human Resources Director
With over 20 years of experience spanning construction, retail, and hospitality, Annika has mastered the art of building and maintaining a positive, inclusive work culture that fosters employee well-being and engagement. Holding a BS in Business Administration with an emphasis on Marketing, Management, and Entertainment from the University of Montana, Annika brings a blend of creative problem-solving and innovative strategies to her role at GLY. When not at work, she can be found enjoying the outdoors, attending concerts, or cheering at sporting events. Growing up playing softball and spending five years managing, assisting, and playing on the company coed softball team, Annika knows how to bring people together — both on and off the field. As the youngest of six, her experience with juggling multiple personalities is put to good use in HR! Annika is also a proud supporter of Sawhorse Revolution, the AGC Education Foundation, and JDRF Beat the Bridge.
Jeff Crawford
Principal+Senior Project Manager
Jeff has award-winning attention to detail—literally—he was once recognized for creating the longest RFI ever written by a Project Engineer. Despite a background in design, which includes a BA in Architectural Studies from the University of Washington, Jeff discovered an organizer and planner role fit him best, so he turned his focus to managing the construction process. He joined GLY in 2006, applying his dual strengths in design and project management to our healthcare and life science projects. Away from work, Jeff enjoys playing basketball, running, and hiking with his family.
Dennis Sizemore
Cement Mason Superintendent
Dennis is the go-to guy on anything and everything concrete. At age 15, he poured and finished driveways, patios, and shop slabs. When he started at GLY at 18, he was the youngest journeyman in his union. Today, he's a concrete master who oversees projects up to one million square feet. His favorite aspect of the job is the constant change of scenery since he's not on one single project for an extensive amount of time. While concrete is a big part of Dennis’s life, he makes plenty of room for his kids, fishing, hiking, and visiting Kauai, his happy place.
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?
Janine Messina
Marketing Manager
CPSM
Janine feels at home in the world of marketing since it combines her passion for art, writing and graphic design with her natural ability to organize, strategize, and analyze. While she enjoys her day-to-day responsibilities, facing new challenges, and the many opportunities to apply her creativity, her favorite part about her job isn’t even marketing-related; she loves working with people and getting to know everyone in the company top-down—from estimating to IT to the hundreds of hard-working craftspeople out in the field.
Joe Bonacci
CFO
When Joe joined GLY in 2016 as Director of Finance, he brought 15+ years of industry experience with him, along with a refreshing angle on the ideas of service, integrity, and value. In late 2018 he was named CFO. In this role he supports GLY’s ongoing pursuit of positive development and champions new technology to improve processes. A Chicago native, Joe still roots for the Cubs but is more likely to be seen on the soccer field or swimming bleachers cheering for his three daughters.
