Eleven people who still answer for the shell.

Lena still walks every job before a number goes out. She ran the Globeville crew, wrote the first trade agreements, and keeps the company on framing and siding instead of drifting into a general free-for-all.

Marcus layouts additions and beam openings. He is the person who decides where the shore goes before a bearing wall comes out, and he still cuts the first plate on every addition.

Priya built the siding standard: story poles, rainscreen gaps, and a photo of every window pan before the lap covers it. She runs the Highlands reclads and the mountain board-and-batten work.

Cole is on the job when Lena is at the next walk. He keeps the frame square, the bracing up until inspection, and the site clear enough that a trade can actually work the morning they are promised.

Naomi hangs the courses Priya lays out. She runs the batten layouts and the color breaks, and she will pull a sheet off the wall before she will hide a bad joint.

Luis cuts the stairs that do not fit a stock stringer. Winding openings, tight bungalow runs, and the finish treads on remodels stay on his list.

Ruthie runs the Decatur bay. Lumber is racked by length, beams are stickered, and a crew does not leave in the morning short a hanger because the order was a guess.

Evan keeps the trade bench on a single calendar. If the roofer, the electrician, and the inspector are supposed to share a morning, he is the one who makes that true.

Sofia turns a walkthrough into a scope an owner can read. She prices framing and siding in house and carries allowances for the partners Helix will schedule.

Daniel sits at the Denver, Jeffco, and south-metro counters. He builds the sheet index, tracks corrections, and tells the crew which inspection is actually on the books.

Maya is in her second year on the frame. She layouts plates with Marcus, stands walls, and is learning the window pans with Naomi so the envelope is not a mystery when the studs are done.
