She is still an active leader as Owner and Chair of the Board of Directors, and serves as a resource to the leadership and management teams as they work to advance the vision and strategies for rand*’s future.
Under her leadership, rand* grew from being a small tenant interiors firm into a $500+ million national multi-market construction corporation. Her knowledge of the industry and professional experience has enabled rand to deliver award-winning work for a vast client base. With a focus on networking, innovation, quality, and customer service.
