WHO WE ARE
VALUES
About
Growing up in the heart of rural Kansas, in the tiny town of St. Paul (population 600!), Deborah learned the value of hard work early on, a lesson shaped by her parents, Marlene and Richard Clark. Her father, Richard, a lifelong construction worker, was her first and most influential teacher. She spent countless hours watching him operate heavy equipment, absorbing his expertise and the sheer dedication it took to build something from the ground up.
But it wasn’t just Richard’s hands-on expertise that molded her. Her mother, Marlene, equally influential, instilled within her the importance of organization, devotion, and taking pride in everything you do by doing it right. Marlene taught her that a promise is a commitment, and following through is non-negotiable. Her meticulous approach to life demonstrated that attention to detail and a commitment to excellence were essential for success.
Our Leader
Marlene Clark possessed strong communication and networking skills, qualities that proved invaluable. She understood the power of connection and the importance of building genuine relationships. This ability to connect with people, combined with her unwavering dedication, taught Deborah that success isn’t solely about individual effort, but also about collaboration and fostering strong community ties.
As a woman in a traditionally male-dominated industry, especially in a rural area where women in construction are few and far between, Deborah understands the importance of paving the way for others. She is passionate about evangelizing for the trades, encouraging young women to explore the incredible opportunities available in construction, using both Richard’s example of physical ability and Marlene’s example of organizational and communication skills.
Building The Community
Beyond building roads and infrastructure, Deborah is deeply committed to humanitarian work and giving back to the community. She believes that our success should be measured not only by the projects we complete, but also by the positive impact we have on the lives of those around us. Her goal is to lead a company that not only builds strong structures but also builds stronger communities, reflecting the values of both her parents: the strength of Richard Clark’s hands and the unwavering dedication and connection of Marlene Clark’s heart.
Our Mission is to provide top-tier employees who network and create innovative strategies to efficiently manage complex projects for our clients.
