Within Holtz Builders Inc., the journey of Chief Human Resources Officer Trina McVicker reflects a story shaped by determination, service and a continual pursuit of stronger workplaces. Her career began through a desire to understand people, especially those who seldom felt heard.

The early stages of McVicker’s path were defined by meaningful encounters that revealed the power of belonging. Through experiences supporting individuals facing hardship, she learned the impact of trust and the importance of listening. These insights became the cornerstone of her professional direction.

Once in her role, McVicker focused on strengthening systems that shape the employee experience. She worked to create clear processes, consistent communication and supportive structures that encourage alignment across the company.
