DALLAS, TX — Sundt Construction recently hired one and promoted two to support its Transportation group at its Irving, Texas, office. Jackie Barnes was hired as a Senior Estimator, and Michaela Givan and Nick Shumate were promoted to Lead Estimator and Preconstruction Project Manager, respectively.

Barnes previously worked as a Lead Estimator for heavy civil projects with construction values ranging from $20 million to $244 million.

“Jackie has already proven to be a great addition to our preconstruction team. Her experience as a skilled builder and leader of complex estimates will be a vast asset to our team as we continue to grow in Texas,” said Jeff Grigsby, Chief Estimator of Sundt’s Transportation Group.

Givan, a Colorado School of Mines graduate, started as a Sundt intern in 2017 and has now been an Estimator with Sundt full-time for over four years. She most recently worked on the $117 million interchange reconstruction project at IH 20 and US 84 in Roscoe, Texas.

Shumate has been with Sundt for a little over a year. Prior to joining Sundt, he assisted on numerous transportation projects both in operations and preconstruction. He is currently on the preconstruction team for the Neighborhoods 2 and 6 Street Reconstruction project for the City of Denton.

“Nick’s advanced use of technology has raised our attention to detailed estimating to a new level,” Grigsby said. “Michaela has been a tremendous asset to our preconstruction team since joining Sundt. Her work ethic and attention to detail exemplify Sundt’s core values. I am excited to see what new innovations Nick and Michaela will bring to our team to further Sundt’s mission to be the most skilled builder in America.”
