The repurposed Educator team

Kayti grew up with exposure to the construction industry. Her parents owned an aggregate trucking fleet, a ready-mix plant, several pits, and a sod farm. She spent much of her childhood working in the office and in the sod fields. After high school, she got her teaching degree and spent 14 years in education. She taught in the elementary grades and later in her career, she coached educators and led professional development. 

In 2020, she took a break from education to learn the dirt world. Kayti and her husband started DW Companies with a passion to do things different.

Ry's background is in special education and school counseling. She has six years of experience in education which includes teaching students, coaching other teachers on behavior modification or classroom management, and providing professional development. 

Although Ry did not grow up in the dirt world, she values the blue collar way of life (her dad is a truck driver!) and believes in changing the industry for the better. She is currently a team member at DW Companies where she handles marketing and social media. 

Erica's background is 11 years in elementary education.  She taught 5th and 6th grade, and later stepped out of the classroom to be an Innovation Specialist.  She spent the last two years coaching educators and leading professional development.

Invited to a professional development by Kayti, Erica had found a new passion and purpose - always a teacher at heart - helping to improve the culture in the construction world.  She is currently a team member at DW Companies where she utilizes her technology background and is helping create Culture Academy.
