Building Homes, Shaping Futures

A Legacy of CTE Excellence

Founded in 1975, the Lynnwood Rotary House Project, a partnership with Edmonds School District’s construction program, delivers high-demand Career & Technical Education (CTE). With secondary education costs soaring and a national tradesmen shortage, our program empowers students for lucrative construction careers, from contractors to architects to city code inspectors and more.

Building Homes, Addressing Needs

The program constructs residential homes in south Snohomish County, with the next project—a duplex in a low-income Lynnwood neighborhood—tackling the housing shortage.

For a decade, we’ve also built two Tiny Homes annually, donated to the Low Income Housing Institute for Seattle’s homeless villages, blending education with social impact.

Preserving a Legacy

In 2025, I rescued the $1.2M program after the sudden death of the House Project Director, by securing a $20,000 grant to rebuilding trust with ESD via my deep relationship with the school district. Appointing a reputiable Rotarian as chair ensured continuity, sustaining CTE for future tradesmen.

Empowering Diverse Careers

Hundreds of students have launched careers as architects, contractors, structural engineers, urban planners, and city code inspectors, shaping communities nationwide. My leadership in grant acquisition and stakeholder coordination has preserved this pipeline, addressing the tradesmen shortage with skilled, passionate professionals.

Impact & Metrics

By managing crises and creative problem solving, I strengthened the program’s 50-year legacy, building homes and futures. This work reflects my commitment to CTE, delivering scalable impact through Project Management, Creative Ops, and mentorship for the next generation of builders.
