What inspired you to pursue a career in construction?

“I have always been interested in building things ever since I was a kid. From building with blocks to building elaborate forts in the woods with my friends. At 16, I started working as a carpenter, and from there I continued to grow a passion for construction.”

– Superintendent

“When I was 3 years old, my dad started his own residential construction company. For the first 15 years of the company, he operated out of our house. Being around that every day and getting to watch the company’s growth was so interesting to me. That was probably the biggest contributing factor to why I found a career in construction.”

– Project Manager

“Chance – I was seeking a new marketing position and saw an opportunity available at Terra. I had considered career paths in architecture and graphic design in high school. While ultimately pursuing business and graphic design, connecting components of those initial two in construction felt like a good fit.”

– Marketing Coordinator

“My dad is a civil engineer and was a big influence on my decision to pursue a career in construction. Being exposed to construction at a young age sparked my interest in how things were built.”

– Assistant Project Manager

“I got into construction because I’ve always been fascinated by how architecture and engineering come together to make something unique. I love the process of seeing a project start as an idea on paper and then slowly take shape piece by piece. There’s just something exciting about watching a building grow, seeing the foundation go in, the structure rise, and then all the details that bring it to life. For me, it’s really rewarding to know I had a hand in creating something that people will see, use, and appreciate for years to come.”

– Field Engineer

“Volunteering with Habitat for Humanity in College gave me a look into the construction industry and what good we could do for our surrounding communities. I wanted to be a part of that movement, so I started working construction during college as well.”

– Estimating/Preconstruction

“I had always enjoyed building. I did a lot of construction in high school and decided to pursue architecture in college. As a career, after being an architect for 10 years, I decided to make the switch to project management.”

– Senior Project Manager
