We have a great deal of respect for him and the work he has done at Gardner.”

In his new position, Myers will work closely with architects, façade consultants and specification teams to ensure Walker Glass solutions are integrated seamlessly into projects from concept through execution, reinforcing the company’s presence in one of the U.S.’s most active architectural regions.
