Dear Members,
It is an honor to serve as President of the Home Builders Association of Great Lakes Bay Region. With over 30 years of experience at the local, state, and national levels, I have seen firsthand the power of a strong association. This past year, we took a significant step forward by merging the HBA of Saginaw and the HBA of Midland to create a unified organization dedicated to growth and community impact.
As we move forward, our focus remains on expanding membership and leveraging our collective strength to support workforce development, education, skilled trades, and advocacy. Together, we can build a bigger, better, and stronger community. Your involvement is key to our success, and I encourage each of you to engage, collaborate, and help shape the future of our industry.
Thank you for being a part of this journey. Let’s continue building a brighter tomorrow—together.
