Bryan Haakenson

Principal+Senior Project Manager

LEED Green Associate

A Northwest native who embodies every aspect of GLY’s collaborative, community-centered approach, Bryan provides leadership on projects in the heart of thriving residential, educational, and corporate campuses that are fully occupied during construction. His unique skills, personality, and temperament make him ideally suited to work within occupied settings to safely and expediently deliver new construction nestled in with renovated spaces. When he’s not building with Legos under his two young sons’ supervision, you can find him chasing a black and white ball around a field.

Brian Sandall

Superintendent

LEED Green Associate

Brian’s 30+ year career includes many of GLY’s most recognizable healthcare projects. He will do whatever it takes to keep clients happy and is known to keep a stash of chocolate hard hats on hand for hospital staff just in case. If you’ve ever met Brian, you know he operates under the Golden Rule every single day, making him a favorite to work with. Brian spends many weekends looking for a thrill—from riding off road on the dunes with his wife and son to taking flight lessons—with no plans to slow down any time soon.

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?

Andrea Miller

Project Manager

Andrea earned a BS in Mechanical Engineering from Drexel University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania before heading west. Prior to joining GLY in 2020, she spent 12 years managing projects for Seattle’s leading healthcare providers, which continues to be her focus. A strong dedication to understanding client goals is paramount in Andrea’s approach to her role; this approach is what makes Andrea well-known for her time management, integrity, and discipline—qualities she also brings home with her as she coaches CrossFit and raises two busy children.

Tyler Tonkin

Principal+Executive Vice President

As both a Principal and member of GLY’s Executive Team, Tyler has built a reputation as a committed client advocate and enthusiastic leader who brings out the best in our teams.
