Greer, SC, August 24, 2016 --(PR.com)-- Addison Homes has added two new employees as the Greenville SC builder staffs up to meet increasing demand for its “Healthy, HighPerformance Homes.”

Kristy Thompson has come aboard as Construction Superintendent, with responsibility for running the company’s job sites. She organizes the schedule for each project to ensure tasks are completed promptly and properly, with emphasis on quality control to maintain the industry’s highest standards. Thompson is Addison Homes’ liaison with trade partners and vendors while also serving as point-person for clients during the construction process.
