And the rest, as they say, is history. Born from two aspirations, ownership and fiscal responsibility, Saunders set out with a simple plan - to build good projects for satisfied clients. It was only logical that the boy who spent his summers in the pine forests of Maine, building makeshift benches from boards and nails, would take his knack for building to the next level.
Some people would later reflect that he was born to build. After receiving a degree in Building Industry and Real Estate from the University of Denver, Dick spent the next 10 years fine tuning his construction skills. From digging ditches and pouring concrete to managing the books of a small general contractor, he rarely passed on an opportunity to learn.

Dick Saunders got us off on the right foot in 1972 when he decided to put owner interests first. Given enough time and money, he said, anybody can build a building. The question is, how much can we do for them given a set budget and deadline?
