Builder Profile

that pace. “I don’t know if I’d be able to

keep the same personal touch and quality

if we built much more than that.”

Big Ass Fans® are a signature touch in

Wright-Built homes. “I love the look of

them in a room,” said Wright. “They’re a

standout piece on their own, and they also

work really well in outdoor entertainment

areas, keeping it cooler and keeping the

bugs away.” Wright is a huge proponent of

outdoor living spaces and likes to include

features like outdoor kitchens and patio

fireplaces whenever possible. As a Certified

Green Professional, Wright also strives to

implement as much repurposed and reused

materials and elements as possible in her

homes. “It’s not always cheaper or easier,

but it’s worth it in the end.”

Wright has always lived and built in rural

East Texas. “We get people from all walks

of life here, and we attract retirees from all

over the world,” said Wright. “I’m not stuck

in a subdivision. I get to build on lakes and

rivers, pine thickets and pastures.” Wright

has served on the Tyler Area Builders

Association Board of Directors for five years

now and enjoys her continued involvement

and impact on the industry. Her work has

been highly lauded, and she is a winner of

TAB’s Excellence under 45 Award, among

other accolades.

“We’re not cookie-cutter,” said Wright. “We

do a lot of things that are nontraditional,

and sometimes people think our designs are

crazy.” She draws her inspiration from the

home buyers themselves and builds houses

to fit the owners’ personalities to create

something unique to them. “I really like

building for people who are truly excited

about their new house, when I can walk

away knowing I’ve built their forever home

and they’re happy with it,” said Wright.

“Those homeowners make it worthwhile.”
