What’s Your Favourite Thing About Working with Alair?
My favourite thing about my work with Alair is listening to everyone’s ideas then motivating a diversely talented team to make our collective vision a creation that not only brings joy to us the builders, but to our clients who have trusted us with their investment.
 
What Should Someone Know About You?
I put maximum effort into everything I do. I became a builder because shelter is a basic need and right of every human. Being able to provide someone with their dream home while enjoying the process of getting there together–there is simply just no better feeling! I get to wake up and do this for my profession and I am so grateful for the opportunity to do so.
