Leadership Team

Founders
Elaine and Larry are enjoying life catching exotic fish around the world. They have proudly watched their leadership take roots as the next generation has continued on with Taylored Traditions. We still see them as they check in through email and stop in when they are in town. We were very lucky to have had them pass so much knowledge to all of us who had the pleasure of working with them.

Project Manager
Gordon joined Taylored Restoration in July 2002 as a lead carpenter for the large projects department and a member of the emergency team. He moved into the role of project manager due to his attention to detail. Gordon left the rolling hills of northern Idaho for Alaska in January 1982. His move from a farming and logging background to the construction field began big. He started with a 365-unit apartment complex. Gordon started his own construction company around 1987, specializing in hardwood flooring and remodeling. Sanders Construction served the state through 2002, when we were lucky to have Gordon become part of the Taylored Team. He is very knowledgeable, professional and always willing to lend a helping hand. When Gordon is not busy at work he is usually involved in a project on his own home, out walking his dog, or enjoying the open road on his Harley.
