A before and after look at a modular KTECT build in Los Angeles, California.

This month we are featuring executive member Rusty Wm. Crozier and his thoughts on building with meaningful relationships. What specific values do you bring to your projects? "I guess to start, I bring over 40 years of experience in detailed thinking, fine wood working and an appreciation for creative integrity to the projects I work on. But within that experience, there are of course the things you learned from making mistakes, and the things you learned from completing amaz...ing projects! I try to be authentic, and somewhat vulnerable about that because others need to be free to avoid the mistakes I have made, in order for them to enjoy the completion of their projects in an excellent way. I have seen buildings come and go, and people come and go, but by far the most impact is from people. Now if the two experiences can be combined in the context of great relationships, both the people and the buildings become parts of our lives that we want to revisit often with joy. I think I bring the potential for joy at the completion of an excellent build to the table. I value integrity, because who I am in the hidden areas will affect the work we do in the hidden areas of a build. I want the work in the hidden areas done at the same high level as the finish trim in full sight of everyone. This will protect the relationships in the project that are at risk if we work without integrity, honesty, and authentic vulnerability. My classical music training taught me that it is sometimes far more affective to lead from the second seat rather than from the first seat. This is invaluable when working with clients who rightfully want to lead their projects from the first seat. I am content to listen, learn, and then at the right time, table ideas that create solutions, solve problems, instigate innovation and break through to new and different products and methodologies in the building industry."
