PHOENIX, AZ, Aug.10, 2016
– The Southwest division of Graycor Construction Company has promoted Kyle Walker and Geovanni Villalta to the position of senior project manager – a
move indicative of the company’s focus on growing its footprint of
professionals in the Southwest and fully capitalizing on Graycor’s national
platform and capabilities.
As Senior Project
Managers, Walker and Villalta are responsible for cultivating client
relationships and overseeing the execution of key construction projects,
including major office, retail and mixed-use development, hospitality, tenant
improvements and industrial facilities including distribution centers,
manufacturing and cold storage.
“With more than 30
full-time employees, we have a deep bench of experts in the Southwest who are
eager to build on their already strong understanding of the industry,” said Todd Ostransky, Graycor Construction
Company General Manager – Southwest Division.
“Kyle and Geovanni are
great examples of this core of experts. Recognizing and encouraging their
dedication is one of the best ways we can continue to develop our people,
resulting in superior services to our regional clients.”
Since joining Graycor in
2013, Walker has been integral in the development of ALDI Regional Headquarters
and Distribution Center in Moreno Valley, California, Red Hook Academy in Las
Vegas and Chandler Crossroads in Chandler, Arizona. He is currently managing
the StitchFix.com distribution center expansion and preconstruction for the
LaPour Camelback Collective project, both in Phoenix.
