Let me introduce a couple of our awesome Prefab Team members!

Carlene Okamoto, Prefab Quality Control Coordinator Carlene was recruited by a friend in April of 2018 where she started in the Prefab shop. Her Manager, Eric Opstedahl, then encouraged her to join the ABC program where she is now a 4A. Carlene spent some time in the field before ultimately finding her home back in Prefab leading the quality control for Prefab assemblies.

Carlene lives by the saying she learned from Eric, “Nobody’s perfect. Everyone makes mistakes. But some mistakes will teach you great lessons and make you a better person.” Therefore, Carlene is trusted to teach the younger generation coming into the trade and helps ensure good quality product gets shipped out of Prefab.

Matt Bennison, Tool Department Manager In an effort to perform a complete overhaul of the Tool Department, Matt was chosen to oversee the establishment of new processes that will fundamentally help tool up and tool down jobsites effectively and accurately. Matt has extensive managerial background in hospitality and enjoys taking on new challenges. In his free time, Matt enjoys spending time with friends and family, off roading and travelling.
