Like many of the top executives at Buildings By Design, Merle began his BBD career inauspiciously. Hired as a crew foreman 5 years ago, he began working his way steadily up the ranks. Today, he serves as Corporate VP and Concrete General Manager. Merle is in charge of overseeing preconstruction, business development, and strategic planning.

He is an active member of the community and serves as a member of the Brush High School football and wrestling teams. Merle says attention to detail and paying keen attention to client needs are the keys to Building By Designs success.
