Cara Siemens - Office Manager
I met Brett shortly after he started his company and have always been impressed with his commitment to quality and customer service. Over the years my role in the company grew from helping him address envelopes to developing an accounting system, to now managing our bustling company. I really enjoy the process of building a project, from the planning to the final pictures, and all the wonderful people that are involved. We strive to develop great craftsmen within our company and work with the best in the area to create beautiful homes that will stand the test of time.
When I’m out of the office, I’m spending time with our four children - the lights of my life.
John Tranchina - Project Manager
I began my homebuilding career working for a craft-oriented small builder in Northern California during the mid-1970’s, I earned a General Contractors license in 1983, took on a partner, and began building custom homes. In parallel, I got involved with a local woodworkers’ association, and developed a passion for creating fine wooden furnishings. I have had a pro-level workshop at my home for much of my life. In 1995 I brought my wife and daughter to Kitsap County, and continued working as a project superintendent through 2001, then moved into project management positions with a couple of Bainbridge Island’s premier contractors. Along that path I had opportunity to work with upcoming builder, Brett Siemens. He and I shared a passion for solving problems, serving our customers, and creating beautiful environments. When offered an opportunity to rejoin Brett professionally, I couldn’t pass it up. Along with our creativity, we aim to bring a thoughtful approach, and durable quality to our projects. We also believe that it falls to us to nurture the next generation of fine homebuilders.
Shawn - Journeyman Carpenter
With extensive framing & construction experience, Shawn joined the Siemens Woodworking team in 2018. He brings a positive attitude and is constantly seeking to improve his leadership skills. What does he like about carpentry? “Everything. The ability to see a project, big or small, knowing the value and importance of the task that will provide future protection, source of happiness, stability, beauty & enduring level of quality for years to come. Take pride that you have the ability to change the world, even for one person, a day at a time with my two hands.”
Bill - Site Work Coordinator & Carpenter
For over 13 years Bill focused his career on landscape construction & irrigation so it’s little surprise that he is our anchor when any landscape task is at hand. He is a dedicated employee who often first on site and takes personal ownership of any task given. He is building on his carpentry skills and enjoys learning something new every day.
