Kathryn Ellis promoted to Senior Project Manager
Kathryn Ellis, a project manager since September of 2017, has been promoted to Senior Project Manager.
If you’ve ever come into contact with Kathryn, you would know immediately that she is someone who knows her industry. After Kathryn joined the team, she has jumped in head first to streamline DVB’s projects while creating an even more organized and structured project flow schedule.
In addition to starting a new career, she also embarked on a new journey, motherhood. Kathryn and her husband Jonathan Flatley welcomed their first child, a daughter named Harper, on October 10th, 2018.
In a field normally dominated by men, Kathryn continues to break down barriers. She has shown an industry slow to change that women can find the balance between motherhood and the commercial building environment. Not only has she maintained, she has found ways to thrive.

Harper thinks she is running the show, she may be right!
“I have enjoyed adding a different perspective to this field. I have found that it challenges me daily to bring my best to the table because I have worked really hard to be here. It helps being a part of a company like DVB that champions women and promotes family first. I hope I can encourage other women that they can be successful with starting a family and continue making a difference in their career of choice.”
A certified interior designer, Kathryn earned the National Council for Interior Design Qualification Certification. She graduated in 2008 from George Washington University with a Bachelor in Fine Arts in Interior Design. Her work experience started the summer after graduation with BBGM Architects and Interiors in Washington DC. When she moved to the Eastern Shore she worked for Temco Builders for four years and Fisher Architecture for six years before making the big move to Delmarva Veteran Builders.
“Kathryn is an amazing example of what DVB is all about. She has relentless drive and is always willing to help out any team member. We are absolutely lucky to have her on Team DVB.”
