Mari Wallace came to us after 20 years of senior leadership in retail, primarily Victoria Secret.   She was not only managing the stores but played a vital role in talent acquisition and development. 

She has a wealth of business acumen and a keen eye for talent.  She recruits in construction primarily, but because of her diverse background, she has made placements in several other verticals as well.

Krista comes to SRG with a professional background in medical sales and non-profit management. For nine years, she held various sales positions within the pharmaceutical and medical device industry. Krista then transitioned into a non-profit management role, as the Executive Director of the National Association of Remodeling Professionals (NARI) in 2020. Her time at NARI enabled her to meet many construction professionals in the Charlotte area and work closely with Deb Patterson, who introduced her to the world of recruiting.

Krista is so excited to join the SRG team and help source and recruit Charlotte’s top talent in the construction industry. In her free time, she enjoys playing tennis, going to see live music and spending time with her husband and their three children.
