Tami joined Industrial Building Group with 20 years of construction management experience. With an architectural background and construction in her blood, Tami serves as the liaison between our design teams, clients, and field staff, keeping everyone on task for the implementation and delivery of client-specific projects.

Tami’s keen sense of organization allows her to provide full office and file management while consulting on the technical elements of individual projects.
