I think of my customers as family and every day I strive to help create the best possible experience while you build your dream home. I grew up in the small town of Duvall in the home my father built. With the help of Adair I am continuing the tradition of home building with my family. I am glad to guide and support you through the home building adventure. I joined the Adair Homes team in 2015 because I believe that creating your ideal environment enables you to be your best and happiest self and I am excited to help you build your new home. With a passion for adventure, when not in the office I can be found exploring the state and the globe.

Home Ownership Counselor

Ever since I was a little girl I have always had a passion for construction and design. Whether it was rearranging my parents furniture every week, or designing my high school coffee shop, it seemed to hold a place in my heart.That extreme eagerness to know more about construction and design lead me to get my Degree in Design and Project Management. I have a passion for DIY home projects (which are never ending), as well as, traveling, and being around my amazing friends and family. I was lucky enough to join the Adair team in mid 2015. I love working for a company that helps families realize that their dream home is well within reach.

Home Ownership Counselor

I joined Adair in 2018 as a Home Ownership Counselor, because I enjoy helping people make their dream of a home come true. Homeowners that work with me can expect me to be honest, and keep my promises. I believe that building a new home should be fun and exciting, which is an important core value to Adair, and something I plan to incorporate into each homeowner’s experience. I’m originally from California, but have lived in Washington for the last four years. Outside of work, I’m very social and enjoy playing golf.

Tim Schmidt

Construction Superintendent

I first started building when I was 16 years old, back then we did our own designs. I then ran my own custom home company with my brother for the next 30 years. We always did a lot of our own work including plumbing and electrical, which uniquely qualifies me to oversee all aspects of a build from the foundation to the roof! I have always prided myself on doing things correctly, and creating a well built home! I have a good eye for detail. I joined the Adair team in 2017. I was born and raised in the southern suburbs of Seattle, WA. I am also a semi pro musician and love playing music with friends at various venues.

I joined the Adair Homes team in March of 2018. I have been involved in construction my whole life. Customers are the number one priority in all facets of business including construction. I like to instill a level of confidence by “saying what I will do and doing what I say” solving problems in a positive manner also plays an important role in the ongoing support throughout projects. The core values I contribute as a team player include: Integrity, Honesty and Respect. In my spare time, you may find me enjoying some of my hobbies, which include woodworking, mechanics, and playing guitar.

After being born and raised in Las Vegas I have lived in the Puget Sound area since 1998. Between the rain, snow and sunshine I can't imagine living anywhere else. My wife, Katie, my daughters, Avery and Mila, and my son Ethan and I love to explore Washington state via hiking trails, campgrounds and beaches. Just like the diversified beauty that Washington State provides I am extremely proud to be working with a wide diversity of talents and a dedicated group of individuals here at Adair Homes. It is truly an honor to help our customers build the dream home they always wanted.

Greg Smith

Regional Construction Manager

gmsith@adairhomes.com

Growing up my parents owned and operated a foundation and crane company in the pacific northwest, which meant I spent my summers and school breaks packing lumber, pouring concrete and pounding nails. New home construction has always been a part of my life. I have been part of this great team since 2015. With Adair’s unique approach to "on your lot" homebuilding, I continue to gain knowledge and look forward to the opportunities as I am confidant in our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction. Spending time with my family, standing on top of mountains, lying on a warm sandy beach or camping all put smiles on my face outside of work.

Travis Cherry

Purchasing Agent

As a child, I always admired the fact that there were often landmarks that my father could point out and exclaim "I built that!" Though perhaps more now than back then, I appreciate having had the opportunity to work alongside him. With a background in Finance, IT Project Management and Estimating, I joined Adair Homes in May, 2016 as a Purchasing Agent. I now find myself charged with managing our Pricing System, in addition to a focused responsibility on Trade Acquisition - a role I have found to be both enjoyable and satisfying, having opportunity to rub shoulders with those who truly represent the face of Adair Homes.

Mortgage Loan Officer

I've been in the financial services industry since 1998 and working with Adair Homes customers at Alliance Financial since 2011. It's very rewarding to assist families in capitalizing their home building projects with a great instant equity position in a home that has been tailored and build to suit. My financial advising background and experience in the assembly of a complete home project will be helpful as we sort through the details of preparation and planning an Adair Homes custom home. I love to stay active in nature around the lovely Pacific NW, play golf at least once a month and soccer several times a week.

I joined the Adair team in 2017 after being a stay at home mom for almost two years. Needless to say, while it was rewarding, I'm am happy to be back doing what I do best. After many years of contemplating building my own dream home, I am excited to be the initial source of contact for anyone who has that same desire: building your dream home at an affordable price with a reputable company who's been in business for over 45 years. With the expected growth that we are looking towards in the next few years, I am thrilled to be a part of this team.

I have been in the industry for several years. I started as a real estate agent, which led me to an interest in the home building process.

Adair’s values of honesty, respect, and integrity resonate strongly with me, and I make sure to represent these values to our customers.

Growing up with a general contractor mother, I grew to love the construction process. I remember sitting in on design meetings with her clients, the demo process, as well as the beautiful space she helped create for them. My experience working in flooring showrooms and owning my own design showroom/business; I learned a lot about the materials of today. I am excited to help fine tune the design options program, and am looking forward to helping everyone have their best experience. As a member of the Adair team, I look forward to what we will accomplish together. I like to hike, read, write and paint in my off time.
