Division Manager, Design Build

Joining Wright’s in February of 2015, Justin brings with him over 15+ years of landscape experience. Starting out as a laborer at the age of 15, Justin developed an interest for landscaping while continuing to succeed and grow in both the maintenance and design/build fields, working in a variety of different positions. His passion for landscaping continues to grow as he continues to learn new practices, methods and procedures of the industry.

As Design Build Division Manager, his passion for the industry is reflected in the way he leads and coaches the employees, as well as his commitment to achieving the best landscape that is offered to our clients.

Production Manager, Design Build

Andrew joined the WLS team in the winter of 2019 as an Operator within the Snow Services Division but knew he had much more to offer to the team than just that. Winter ended and Andrew found himself working in the Design Build Department as Project Manager, utilizing his years of heavy construction experience and knowledge. Andrew started his career in Landscape shortly after High School, working his way through a Grounds Maintenance crew all the way to heading up his own Design Build crew, working within a few Landscape Companies in the Tri-Cities over the years. Later on, Andrew found his passion in constructing large projects which took him to larger scale operations and working for several sewer and water main businesses as well as road constructing businesses for the next few years. Ranging from working in the trenches, to operating equipment, to Project Management, Andrew has covered it all when it comes to construction. Having now come full circle and back to his roots in Landscape, Andrew is and will be an asset to the WLS team as we continue to scale and grow into one of the leaders of our trade amongst the Region of Waterloo and beyond. Andrew finds personal fulfillment in spending quality time with his son Mason and wife Jenny. Andrew’s hobbies consist of various sports with his son and is an avid gym enthusiast.
