On a spring morning in April, my Dad and I were fishing in the Ouachita River, which runs through my home town of Monroe, Louisiana. We go fishing as often as our schedules allow, which over the past few years hasn’t been much due to my career advancing me to Shreveport. When we go fishing, there is usually a lot more talking than catching fish. As the morning progressed, things were quiet as we started down the river bank. There was a lot on my mind, and I’d been dreaming of starting a home building company for quite some time. Starting a company has been a desire that originated from my inability to find an employer where I could thrive as an employee in a healthy environment. All too often, I found myself facing crazy politics, and company values that weren’t in line with my own. So branding the company with a name had to mean something, and had to be in line with how I wanted the company culture to be. Something caught my eye as we made our way further down the river bank, a Blue Heron. Like an old friend I’ve known since I was a kid, he always looks the same, as he gracefully moves through the water. As we passed, his patience was notable while he stalked his prey. Then, all at once, he strikes and catches a small fish! He is successful, because God has equipped him with the tools that he needs to be successful. He has patience, a keen eye, and stealth that allow him to catch fish. We trolled on, caught a few fish, and I enjoyed the rest of the day with my Dad. Later that night, I began to think about the Blue Heron. His qualities are one in the same with how I want this company to be - patient, precise, accurate, successful, and one day great, just like the Great Blue Heron. With a lot of thought and prayer, Blue Heron Homes was born and this is my vow to our clients, future employees, and subcontractors. Blue Heron Homes will do its best to serve our clients in the most professional manner possible and offer the highest quality product available with in your price range, while communicating openly and honestly along the way. To our future employees, we vow to offer a place of employment that allows you to thrive as a professional, and come to work in an environment that is healthy and enjoyable. To our subcontractors, we will always treat you fairly and support you as you support us and together we will be successful in this business. We understand any home builder is only as good as their subcontractors. We recognize this and will never take it for granted. This is an exciting time in the life of Blue Heron Homes, and we look forward to finding out what God has in store.
