Albert is our Relationship Sales Manager for North Idaho and Eastern Washington. In that position, he is responsible for managing 29 counties across the two states. Throughout his work, he is able to build relationships with our clients in these areas and meet with them face-to-face when he travels to these beautiful parts of the Pacific Northwest.

The heart of the job lies in cultivating strong, lasting relationships with our clients. For many of them, Albert is their main point of contact throughout the building and design process. He’s there from the very beginning, listening to their ideas and helping shape their vision and he’s there at the very end when the building is being assembled and final touches are underway.
