This month, we are spotlighting our office manager, Shelly Rowan! We asked Shelly a few questions about what she enjoys doing both at home and at the office. Here’s what she had to say:

What do you like most about your job?

The people – I absolutely love coming to work. It is not like work to me. Everyone at BLM is so kind, helpful, energetic, respectful, and fun to work around. Heidi and Barry have built a great business and I love working for them. They have created a family atmosphere and have the utmost respect for their employees.   

What is one quality that sets BLM Construction apart from competitors?

The communication and honesty from start to finish. We are transparent and have no hidden agendas. We do not cut corners or push high end sales that are not necessary.  

What have you gained from working at BLM?

Learning about the construction industry: job costing, AIA progress billing, time and material billing, BuilderTrend, project management, and contracts.

What are your hobbies?

Organization, computers, spending time with my family, travel, cleaning, spending time outside, hanging out by our swimming pool, making new friends, and riding my Harley Motorcycle.

What is at the top of your bucket list?

Travel to Australia and jump out of an airplane/skydive.

Where is your favorite place to go in York, PA?

Our home – I really enjoy our home here in PA. We have everything we need in our own little paradise. We moved here about 2 years ago and we continue to create our home perfect for our needs and for our daughter. She is making it her own little farm with her horse Bo and now her two goats (George and Barbara).  Plus, we love our swimming pool and lots of land to enjoy, it keeps us busy.  Dover and York have been great areas for us, and for the most part, people have been welcoming. We do miss the family we have down south in Savannah, GA.  We can not wait to retire one day back in the south with the sunny warm weather.  Until then, we will enjoy our Dover/York family here making new friends and memories! Plus, I do love my job here at BLM Construction!
