(Chicago, IL, September 21, 2020) Beth Ralston joins Henricksen as an Architectural Product Specialist. Beth brings expertise in architecture and project management for large-scale, corporate and education projects to Henricksen. She will focus on growing the Henricksen Architectural Solutions group’s presence in Illinois and Wisconsin regions. With 14 years in architecture and commercial real estate, Beth understands both the construction process and the priorities that influence stakeholders. “As the Architectural Project Specialist, I will serve as an advocate, expert, and partner who helps clients, general contractors, and the real estate community better understand how modular architectural solutions add value – in quality, flexibility, shortened construction schedules, and the overall bottom line.” Ralston added, “I’m thrilled to join the Henricksen family. With nearly 6 decades in the industry, Henricksen has forged a reputation for integrity, innovation, a willingness to stand behind its people, products, and services that is unmatched in the industry.” Beth joins Henricksen from CBRE where she served as Senior Project Manager. At CBRE, she was responsible for leading teams through all project phases – from strategic planning, design, construction, furniture selection, and occupancy. Her significant projects include McDonald’s Corporate Headquarters and Motorola Solutions Global Headquarters. In recognition of her outstanding communication skills, attention to detail, goal-oriented mentality, and commitment to mitigating risks and accelerating client savings, Beth was the recipient of the prestigious CBRE Global PJM Star Awards 2019 (1 of 20 chosen globally). Beth began her career as an architect at FGM Architects specializing in K12 and higher education environments. Ryan Esche, Principal of Henricksen, said “Beth brings a fresh perspective, enthusiasm, and robust technical understanding of how things get built to the Henricksen team.” Esche added, “Beth’s experience as a practicing architect and senior project manager on complex corporate and education projects is particularly exciting for Henricksen to have in-house. Her presence will help Henricksen and our partners deliver improved solutions and experiences to our customers.” Beth’s passion for building things began in her youth. Her father owned the community hardware store where she worked and learned the fundamentals of construction. Later, she went on to study architecture at the University of Illinois, Champaign, and received a BS in Architectural Studies. In addition to her professional and academic accomplishments, Beth has supported various charitable organizations, including Habitat for Humanity’s Women Build Week, CBRE Cares, and Glass Slipper. She lives in Chicago with her husband and their dog, Champ. Connect with Beth Ralston on LinkedIn.
