Holley Myers. No, not Holly Meyers. Take the first “e” out of Meyers and slip it into the end of Holly and you get Holley Myers:) Glad we got that settled.
There’s thousands of decisions that go into the design of a house. To get each and every one of those decisions made will take another few additional decisions, monitoring, and attention. Holley oversees that. As we work with clients to design their homes, we recommend certain things in a certain order as part of our process. Holley tracks all of that and manages what we need to do next in our process. She’s our guide… sort of like a human map. In fact, she is a self-proclaimed “map nerd,” and one of her favorite work tasks is compiling a bunch of map data for the properties we work on.
As we first start with a new client, Holley is there to set it up. As we go through the steps of designing the project, Holley tracks the time and decisions that get made. As we reach out to builders for bids, Holley tracks their progress and records their numbers. When we go through all the steps of the permit process, Holley checks in on the building dept to get them moving and makes sure we have updated correspondence from the city reviewers at all times. She also helps us to do the bookkeeping, get surveyors going, track the invoicing, comes up with new ideas for efficient processes, and she keeps all of us in line…to the maximum extent possible.
Holley is extremely organized, learns how to quickly do things she has never done before, and she has an intuition to know what happens before it happens. She is truly amazing, and we are honored to have her.
Where did she come from? She’s a Seattle-area native and is my wife’s (Heather Brincko) longest and best friend. They went to middle school, high school, and college together. Together, they have done just about everything.
She loves playing soccer, photography, the Sounders, her kids, and her husband - not sure what order:) She also has her own photography business doing family portraits. Despite all Holley does, she still manages to help her community by being the president of her homeowner association. I think I already said this, but she is TRULY AMAZING! How does she do it and do it so well?!
We look forward to designing many more great projects with Holley and always endeavor to behave ourselves to make her job easier!!
