DECEMBER 2018. Riverstone new owner and CEO, Amanda Wheeler celebrates one year into her new role this month.
Raised in the construction industry – with national general contracting experience – Amanda has held all of the titles: scheduler, contract administrator, senior estimator, project manager, partner, and CEO. This hands-on industry experience has afforded her “ground-up” knowledge of what it takes to deliver a successful project from concept to completion. She is a dynamically, driven leader taking personal interest in client goals. Her steadfast tenure has a foundational belief that collaborative efforts are critical to a seamless project.
“Not only do we get to help our clients build their futures, we get to apply our forward mindset and client-centric approach to the construction industry.” Amanda is proud of her “blue-collar” foundation and continues to execute and build on Riverstone’s proven tradition of excellence and integrity. Rebranding the company with the slogan “Revitalizing the Culture of Construction” has been an intentional mindset shift into this client-centered and relationally driven approach to commercial construction.
Now at the helm of Riverstone, Amanda is continuing to raise the standard of a better construction experience by cultivating relationships with the industry’s leading trade partners and actively working with clients, architects, and engineers to deliver superior projects. The Riverstone team has gladly followed in this newfound passion and are excited for the days ahead.
