## Meet Gary Niro: Bringing Modular Construction Expertise to California
We're excited to welcome Gary Niro to the Tangram family as our new Falkbuilt Business Development Manager. With 15 years of experience in modular construction, Gary brings deep industry knowledge to our expanding California operations.
### From Coast to Coast
Gary's journey from Milford, Massachusetts to Los Angeles reflects the kind of adaptability that serves commercial design professionals well. His transition from East Coast roots to West Coast living mirrors the flexibility that modular construction solutions bring to modern workplace design.
### Industry Experience That Counts
For the past 15 years, Gary served as Southern California Territory Manager for DIRTT, where he developed expertise in modular construction systems that transform how we think about commercial interiors. This background positions him perfectly to help California clients navigate the complexities of modern office design and construction.
**What makes Gary's experience valuable for commercial projects:** - Deep understanding of modular construction timelines and processes - Established relationships within the Southern California commercial market - Practical knowledge of how modular solutions address real-world design challenges
### Beyond the Office
When he's not focused on business development, Gary maintains an active lifestyle that reflects the California ethos. You'll find him at the gym, exploring LA's diverse restaurant scene, or catching up with friends. His recommendations for visitors? The Getty Museum for culture, the Walk of Fame for entertainment, and Runyon Canyon for those seeking outdoor recreation.
### Looking Forward
Gary's most memorable recent experiences include traveling through Barcelona, Sitges, and Paris—a reminder that great design inspiration often comes from experiencing different architectural and cultural environments. He's also working on developing his musical skills with keyboards, showing the same dedication to personal growth that he brings to professional development.
As a sports fan juggling loyalties between his Massachusetts roots (Boston Red Sox, New England Patriots) and his adopted California home (LA Dodgers, LA Rams), Gary understands the importance of building bridges between different perspectives—a skill that translates well to client relationships.
### What This Means for Our Clients
Gary joins Tangram at an exciting time for modular construction in commercial design. His experience will be invaluable as we help California businesses navigate evolving workplace needs, from flexible office layouts to rapid deployment requirements.
"I'm looking forward to starting this new chapter, making new connections, and driving growth for both Tangram and Falkbuilt," Gary shares.
Welcome to the team, Gary. We're excited to see how your expertise will benefit our clients and contribute to the future of commercial interior design in California.
