Hello, my name is Tyra Pickett, Founder / Owner of Pickett Fence Virtual Services, LLC.
You’re here because you need someone who understands your industry and can help you eliminate the stress that comes with running the day-to-day construction business operations. Whether you are buried under a mountain of paperwork, want to double your income, or just want to spend a few more hours with your family, I can help with that. As a business owner, your main responsibility is to focus on building your business. I can provide the technical work to help make that happen.
Who I Am
With over 21 years’ experience in the Corporate world ranging from Construction, General Contracting, Business Management, Architecture, Government and Legal, I am a force to be reckoned with! I have more than 12 years of experience combined in the Architectural and Construction industry working as Assistant Project Manager, Construction Manager and Construction Administrator. I have applied my skills in a variety of projects throughout the U.S. and as far away as Guam, Alaska, and Japan, ranging from $11K to $550 Million, including but not limited to, Commercial and Industrial Buildings, Airports, K-12, Higher Education, Healthcare, Corrections, State and Local Government Contracts, Federal Government, etc. With my many years of experience in construction, I am well versed in LEED, Design/Build, Preconstruction, General Contracting, ESCO and Performance-Based Contracting. I am connected with many peers and advisers in the construction industry, making me privy to all the advances construction has made.
Prior to working in the construction industry, I served as a Paralegal with emphasis in Criminal, Domestic, Real Estate and Civil law working for both private and government firms.
I help remove your headaches. Clients work with me to cut costs, create high-performance businesses, and free themselves from the frustration of trying to figure it out or do it all. I can take your project from conception to completion, which takes the burden off of you and allows you to enjoy your business again.
I am a God-fearing Christian woman, a proud Army wife, and doting mother of the most beautiful kids. Yes, I’m a little biased, but aren’t we all when it comes to our little ones? I believe in honesty, loyalty and accountability. I have a strong moral fiber and believe that consistency and being ethical makes a big impact on whether or not you will be successful. In my free time, I am a professional photographer, foodie, love my church, movie fanatic and techie. I love creating new memories with my family and I love to travel.
