Originally from Hickory, North Carolina, Melvin attended NC State University and graduated in 2000 with a BS in Civil Engineering and Construction Management. Upon graduation, he spent almost a year and a half with Wilkie Construction as an Assistant Project Manager before taking a position as Project Manager at Matthews Construction for just over 4 years.
In September of 2005, Melvin joined Jemsite as a Project Manager and has since provided a well-rounded combination of intellect, experience, and relationship development to each project he has touched. With a gift for good-natured conversation, he inherently manages to find someone he knows everywhere he goes.
In his spare time, Melvin cherishes time spent with his far superior better half, Stephanie, and three kids, Raylee, Ada, and Lincoln. Passionate about anything outdoors, his hobbies include hunting, fishing, traditional archery, golf, and attempting to stay in shape. When he’s not traveling or trying new restaurants with his wife, he loves cooking and considers himself a foodie. Melvin is also actively involved in the Alliance Bible Fellowship and is Chairman of the Grace Academy School Board of Directors, both in Boone.
