Andrew Ellis
Senior Design Engineer
RA, LEED AP BD+C, Associate DBIA™
Andrew spent 14 years immersed in his original calling: Architecture. He found that the most enjoyable and rewarding moments occurred while collaborating with builders. Deciding to blend two passions together—design and construction—Andrew now leverages robust VDC tools to better understand, communicate, and help execute a project’s design intent. Simply put, he constructs the building virtually to iron out any wrinkles before it’s built in the field. Outside the office, Andrew can’t get enough of the mountains. The numbers speak for themselves. He’s made his way to the summit of Mount Rainier via 16 different routes!

After earning her BS in Construction Management, she immediately joined GLY to do what she loves most: build!

It is no surprise that her first job was performing quality control checks at a pear orchard.
