Justin@TrinityConstructors.com
Justin leads the firm’s sales and strategic efforts. He started his career in the construction industry as an emergency response technician for one of the largest disaster restoration contractors in the country. As a field technician Justin learned what is required in repairing homes or commercial buildings following a natural disaster. Working with large commercial and institutional clients, Justin quickly discovered that speed and quality are the key components in the completion of any successful project. After managing projects in the aftermath of the September 11th terrorist attacks, Justin became a National Project Manager and was assigned to New Orleans to oversee the restoration of several large commercial projects after damage from Hurricane Katrina, completing over $70M in contracts.
Justin’s desire to stay in one place after years of consistent travel resulted in focusing his sights on Central Texas commercial construction. He began working with fast paced, multi-location retail and restaurant clients who valued not only the quality of the work performed, but the intensity his experience brought to their projects. After several years as a Project Executive for a national general contractor, Justin founded Trinity Constructors in 2014 with a focus of servicing mid-level commercial construction clients.
Justin continues to enjoy the aggressive nature of the Texas construction market and the exciting new concepts that approach the firm every day looking for a fair priced, high quality and efficient construction process. Justin is dedicated to ensuring each-and-every client receives service above their expectations.
A private pilot, Justin can be found flying volunteer missions for organizations Angel Flight and Pilots and Paws with his wife Kelli in his time away from Trinity.

Matt@TrinityConstructors.com
Matt was born and raised in Bakersfield, which people there called “The Little Texas of California”. His first job was working on ranches and feedlots starting at ten years old and going through graduation from high school. After graduating at the top of his class, he received a scholarship to Arizona State University for academics and track, but instead, he chose to join the United States Air Force. His parents were less than thrilled, but Matt wanted the challenge. He was trained as a combat medic in the pararescue squad, and this had an important impact on how Matt sees himself and those around him that is still in effect today. Matt is a team player, period.
After leaving the Air Force as a staff sergeant, Matt wanted another challenge. He moved to LA and worked as in the LA County Paramedic Corp for a decade in some of toughest neighborhoods, working alongside some great professionals and seeing both the best and worst in people. On the side, Matt started working in a commercial cabinet shop, and he found a lot of satisfaction in the precision required and the end result of a job complete.
Family called Matt to Texas, and he accepted a position as a production manager in a high end residential and commercial millwork company in Austin. Matt’s ability to lead was immediately realized, and for the next five years, he coordinated the completion of countless projects across Austin, many downtown and at such notable sites such as the Frost Building and the Driskill Hotel. When his company was hired by Trinity Constructors to complete a difficult project, Matt’s ability to lead others and overcome challenging obstacles was immediately recognized, and he was recruited to work for Trinity and lead the charge on some of our most demanding projects.
Matt is a senior leader, both on the jobsite and to his friends and family around him. He takes time to mentor those who need advice, feed those who are hungry, and support those who need help.

Barry was born and raised in the Houston area. Immediately after graduating high school, he decided he wanted to visit new places, meet new people, and do what he could to make a difference in the world, so he joined the United States Marine Corps. While in the Marines, Barry’s Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) was a hybrid drafting, land surveying, and construction management role, and he was stationed in Camp Pendleton, CA.
Just over a year into is enlistment, 9/11 happened, and after more than a year of deployment preparations, his unit was deployed to the Middle East, in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom. In Iraq, his role was to locate, secure, and setup stretches of road for aircraft to land, refuel, and resupply for their combat missions.
With the knowledge and skills gained in the Marines, Barry decided to return home, to Houston, and take his talents to the Oil and Gas industry. He started out working on offshore construction vessels in the Gulf of Mexico, developing subsea drilling leases for the major oil companies operating in the area, and eventually worked his way up to a project management role.
Always eager to take on new challenges, he decided to move on to residential construction as a construction manager. There, he learned the process of ground up construction, which he found quite enjoyable and rewarding, delivering a high quality product to new homeowners.
Barry became interested in commercial builds, desiring to be a well-rounded builder. Shortly afterwards, coming onboard with Trinity Constructors, with whom, he shared the same values of high quality, on-time, and budget conscious construction.

After working for his dad, John spent the next 15 years working in two different industries, in the food industry performing biological lab testing and in pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals performing quality control and quality assurance. During this time, he was introduced to stringent standards from the industry regulatory agencies. This taught him the importance of conducting quality work and ensuring high standard products were shipped out the door. He also learned about different organisms that affect the human body and how to detect them.
John’s interest in consumer safety moved his family to a small town in Leola, Pennsylvania for two years. Here, he was able to experience different cultures, weather and meet people from all over the world. Although it was a rewarding field, John’s passion for construction was always in the back of his mind.
He caught his break when he was approached to build microbiology laboratories as a project manager. Over the next six years John built labs throughout the US.
He is excited to have joined Trinity Constructors, to apply his experience, and gain knowledge from the team. You can find John spending his free time on his boat with his 2 boys and wife. He also enjoys working on his truck and helping his neighbors with any handyman needs.

Construction Coordinator
cheryl@trinityconstructors.com
Originally from Corpus Christi, Cheryl’s proud to say she’s been an Austinite since college in the early 1990’s. Although now in the Round Rock area, she still finds it so exciting to witness the ever-changing Austin skyline, as it has significantly evolved over the years. With a background ranging from hospitality management and corporate sales, to meeting planning and accounting work, when recently asked, “Why the construction industry?” it was crystal clear why she was drawn into this field of work. Simply put, “It’s exciting to be a part of building something!”
Early on, Cheryl’s service-oriented mindset afforded her an 11-year career in hospitality management where she spent most of her time with a major hotel corporation at a very busy hotel property. With a natural ability to develop a strong rapport with guests and clients alike, she also served as a Corporate Sales Manager for the thriving Business Travel market, where she built strong professional relationships and was eventually recruited to work as a Project Manager, planning meetings and trainings for several years for a Fortune 500 Company located in Austin. Planning logistics, coordinating details large and small with deadlines and heavy responsibility for executing events on time and to budget, she gained valuable skills and experience, applicable to her role as a Design Coordinator for a leading general contractor based in Georgetown, TX, and eventually earning a role as a Construction Administrator for over six years.
Although one of the latest to join the Trinity Team, she felt an instant connection with their commitment to excellence, attention to detail and overall core values. Being that the first client she ever met at Trinity, is one very cool hospitality group, she feels like her career has come full circle and that she has landed exactly where she is meant to be!
Even though she grew up by the beach, Cheryl loves hanging out at the area lakes in the warmer months. She’s usually got her hands in a creative project of some sort with her Mom, enjoys relieving stress with kick-boxing, absolutely loves live music and her local outdoor music festivals. She enjoys trying new restaurants with husband, Joe, and son, Jayden, and admits she’s had fun raising a true local, “Foodie,” who now keeps the pulse on the next must-try concepts around town. From what she has learned, he’ll have to keep up with all the awesome new venues Trinity keeps building for some pretty amazing repeat clients!

Amber was recruited to join the Trinity Team as The Client Relations Manager based off skills she gained from her experience as a Math Teacher, Insurance Sales Agent, and Corporate Flight Attendant. She had no idea how much she would feel at home with the Trinity Family.
She cannot seem to totally separate herself from all her past jobs as she still does some Math Tutoring, airplane detailing, and flies the occasional contract flight.
When she is not out hustling, she can be found with her pup Gizmo and her boyfriend, Ross. They fly as often as they can; flying does happen to be one of Gizmo’s favorites modes of transportation. He’s an excellent passenger since he uses his flight time to rest.
