Darin Heyen has assumed the role of 2019 Chairman of the Board of The Builders’ Association. He became Vice Chairman and a member of the Association’s Executive Board in 2018. He previously served as President of the Association’s sister organization, the Kansas City Chapter of the Associated General Contractors of America (AGC), from 2013 to 2014.
He is President of Pearce Construction, a general contractor whose clients range from nonprofit and faith-based organizations to commercial, financial, medical, and more. He has a B.S. degree in Architecture from the Kansas State University College of Architecture and Design, and is a licensed architect in Kansas and Missouri.
Darin has chosen engagement as the theme he wants to promote in 2019. “I challenge each of our members at every level—ownership, executive management, field staff and project management—to engage and get involved. Get your people involved in the Builders’. You will not be disappointed.”
“I want to expand our Association’s outreach and involvement within our own companies. I want to see our Association educate and excite the next generation,” he continued.
During his address to the more than 400 people who attended The Builders’ Association’s Annual Banquet, Darin stated, “Our members have literally built this city. They’ve built thousands of buildings throughout the Midwest and even coast-to-coast. They are the unsung heroes of the building environment.”
