Our Amazing Team

Aly never shies away from a challenge or competition, including VEX Robotic competitions in school. She’s resourceful, detail-oriented, and flexible, all necessary traits to make her a great software engineer. She loves a cappella music and doting on her baby niece.

The best part about Chong is he doesn’t stop until he makes a friend out of you. His subtle humor and easy-going personality allows him to spark up a conversation with just about anyone. He easily gets others excited and his project management skills in our construction division help push the organization forward. Some would say he helps build bridges literally and figuratively.

Chu is known for her strong work ethic, positive attitude, and natural curiosity for the people and things around her. She loves to help others learn and actualize their goals. She’s big on social issues and understands what needs to be done to lift others up.

Clint’s creative mind is good for a lot of things: product development and graphic design – but most notably, a good comeback. Come at Clint with a joke and he’ll easily twist it back at you. Engage at your own risk.

Dan’s business strategy carries a lot of weight; he is able to break down complex problems into digestible pieces. When things seem stressful, Dan finds a way to break the tension with his light-hearted and calming sense of humor. If he has an extra tab open on his laptop it’s probably an 80’s Hair Band concert.

Dane is either in the office, with his two dogs, or outdoors. His sentiment may not always show on the surface, but it’s embedded into his work. His dedication and hard work never go unnoticed, and he will always speak up for what he believes is right. He considers and brings to the table options that others may overlook.

Eric is a recent BYU graduate with an exceptional eye for product and industrial design. His unique skill set and cool attitude make him a reliable colleague. When Eric isn’t working, our best bet is he would be hanging out in a woodshop while watching the Jazz game, and eating chicken tikka masala – of course, all of this with his wife and baby. 

Dustin is pragmatic and thoughtful in the workplace. He capitalizes on his ability to get things done and understands how to help the team in any way he can. Give him a steak dinner, and he is all yours.

Hoang is the altruistic backbone of this company. Community engagement is her speciality: she serves on five different boards and helps bring resources to underserved populations. She invests in her employees and assists with opportunities they may not normally have. She handles governmental and public affairs for the organization. As a mother of two young boys, not much can shake her at this point.

Jared uses his witty, upbeat personality to win people over and present compelling evidence for whatever argument he wants to make. When his colleagues get stuck in a box, Jared is able to get them out using forward-thinking solutions. He’s a workaholic by nature but sometimes you can catch him on the golf course or spending time with his dogs.

Kathryn is the caretaker of the office. Her ability to help others and find solutions makes her essential to keep this organization afloat. She is endlessly resourceful, a donut lover, and a self-described nerd.

Lien’s main objective is to help SAPA give back as much as possible. She understands in order to do that, she has to build a team that is efficient and effective in their respective roles. She harvests the best qualities in others to create a team that’s capable of serving the community in an impactful way. She wants the best for her team and values loyalty greatly.

Mark thrives at content strategy, asking the right questions, and understanding others. He gets excited about good ideas but isn’t afraid to admit if something isn’t working for him or the organization. He loves to get into a good argument, basically drinks hot sauce, and needs subtitles on everything for no reason.

Max has been with the company for a very long time. He is dedicated to seeing the organization grow and helps provide the opportunities to others that allowed him to work his way up to the top. It’s odd to see Max not be one of the last people in the office every night. He’s married to the job and understands better than most how this organization is continuously evolving and he looks to support it during major changes.

Michael is outgoing and friendly with all those who cross his path. His ability to befriend anyone makes him a natural leader in the office. He says his favorite subject in school was hookey, which means he was probably out networking before anyone else.

Mimi never really slows down in her personal or professional life. Once she becomes passionate about a particular hobby – biking, painting, skiing  – she won’t stop until she is satisfied that she pursued her goal wholeheartedly. Similarly, at work, Mimi pushes her limits constantly and loves to share her progress with others.

Watching Mo design buildings is like watching an artist paint. He critically thinks about every detail he puts into his architectural plans. He is very receptive to others’ opinions on his work but also confident enough to trust his own intuition. If he’s not working he’s usually playing soccer, spending time with friends, or looking for a new burger joint in town.

As a thought-leader for the organization, Narith has a unique ability to empower those around him. His insights when it comes to brand strategy are essential to the long-term growth of the organization. With his warm communication style and jocular nature, Narith puts everyone at ease.

Paul has spent most of his career building businesses from the ground up. Regardless of how far he rises up the ladder, Paul never stops thinking about those around him and how he can make a difference in their lives. His idealism and logic make him invaluable and he’s always listening..literally. (He might have hidden microphones.)

When Ricky walks through the door the volume immediately goes up. He is outgoing and uses an empathetic, energetic approach in everything he does. He loves hip-hop, outdoor activities, and meeting new people. Ricky speaks very fast which attests to the excitement he brings to everything he does.

Ronny is one of the main content creators for the organization. His natural aptitude for visuals has made him essential in the storytelling aspect. He never turns down an opportunity to create or share his work or the work of his peers. Ronny is always busy, but he finds the time to collaborate with anyone that will have him.

Son is a co-founder and oversees the financial and investment arms of the organization. He has more than 25 years of business development and hospitality experience in the Salt Lake Valley. He thinks critically about every decision and cares deeply about the welfare of the local community.
