My journey at LJA started in 2012. I was hired through a true word of mouth process that appropriately took place at a networking luncheon. I remember leaving my interview and calling my mom, telling her that I thought I’d finally found the job I have been searching for. In 2012 I was hired to be a Public Relations Coordinator for LJA when we were just 235 employee owners. I was 1 of 6 on our Marketing team at the time.

Over the next few years, I grew to know our business, our clients, and my fellow Employee-Owners. My position grew to Marketing Manager and later I was promoted to Business Development Manager. After over 10 years here, representing LJA is something I wear proudly.

LJA has been a home away from home for me. It is a place where I’ve grown, where I’ve seen my peers grow and with that, I have seen LJA grow from 235 to over 1500 employee owners.

It is the best place to work for because of the people. I have met some of my best friends here, and they have become my family. LJA is a place that welcomes you, teaches you, and pushes you every day to be better than yesterday. It isn’t just work, or co-workers – it’s family.

I started as an Intern in 1999. It was my first semester out of high school and I was attending Camwood Community College, what is now Lonestar. I interned for 6 months when my manager at the time informed me that if I worked over 32 hours, I would be eligible for tuition reimbursement. More importantly, it allowed me to become an Employee-Owner. I worked all throughout college and while studying for my PE exam to become a professional engineer.

I have now been at LJA for over 20 years and have had every position you could potentially think of. From CAD 1, 2, and 3, to Designer 1, 2, and 3, from Project Manager, growing into the roles that followed and now – I am a Vice President of Land Development.

What makes LJA different? The people. The family atmosphere. My dad worked and retired here. Your clients and your friends become your family. It has been the people I’ve worked with and projects I’ve worked on. We get the best of the best – from projects to people. LJA has stepped up time and time again to take care of not just me, but all of their Employees-Owners. There isn’t another place like it.
