Introducing Don Foster, Schuff Steel’s Craft Team Lead Trainer at our Ottawa shop. With three decades in the steel industry, Don has dedicated 18 years to Schuff, focusing on training new craft employees in the company's operational processes while emphasizing a steadfast 'Safety First' approach.    Don derives immense satisfaction from his role, particularly when he witnesses the professional growth of his trainees as they evolve into integral members of the Schuff team. This journey of nurturing talent and observing their successful careers brings him great joy.    One of Don’s most significant achievements at Schuff is the respect and recognition he garners from his peers and other managers as they work together to make Schuff the best it can be. His daily drive stems from a love for construction, a zest for tackling challenges, and a fervor for mentoring the next generation to experience the same fulfillment from a job well done.    For those just starting out, Don's advice is clear and inspiring: “At Schuff Steel, the sky's the limit. We prioritize internal promotions and take pride in watching our employees grow into valuable team members. Identify what motivates you and pursue it with determination, as the rewards are well worth the effort.”    Outside of work, Don enjoys hunting, fishing, gardening, and spending quality time with his sons, imparting the knowledge and skills he has acquired over his extensive career. Don, your dedication to training Schuff’s team members is truly appreciated!

Today we’re highlighting Lisa Chavarin, Schuff’s Director of Business Development and Preconstruction. Lisa has been in the steel industry for 6 years – all of those have been spent working for Schuff Steel. Her current role puts her at the forefront of pursuits for the Southern California construction market. Lisa’s day-to-day work encompasses facilitating the transition of projects from sales to project management, maintaining client relationships and supporting the Project Management department in working through any constraints that arise.     Lisa’s favorite part of her job is seeing the hard work come to life in the evolving landscape of a project. Being an integral part of the Snapdragon Stadium and Scripps Tower II projects, which ran concurrently, each had their own unique challenges, and have been the most impactful projects of her career. Lisa looks forward to coming to work each day because she never experiences the same day twice. She finds it motivating to work for a company that chases the most complex projects and doesn’t shy away from obstacles just because they are hard or haven’t been done before. For those just starting out in the industry, she has these words of encouragement: ‘Hard work and curiosity will take you further than you ever thought you could go. Never be afraid to ask questions.’    In her free time, Lisa enjoys sports of all kinds and when not working you can usually find her at one of her kids’ sporting events or watching a baseball game. Lisa, thanks for your hard work and dedication to being a part of the team at Schuff!
