Finding inspiration at every turn.

Tad King, Managing Director of Construction, has been involved in the golf industry since 1986, and is well versed in all aspects of a golf course construction project from initial conceptual design through active construction and grow-in. His skill set and background extend into maintenance and golf course operations, as well. He has built golf domestically and internationally for many years.  

In addition to his ability to consistently deliver world-class products on time and on budget, his varied and extensive background has forged his excellent reputation in the golf world.

Tad & Rob are thrilled to have the opportunity to partner with Trevor Dormer, a native of Kimberly, BC. While Trevor made massive contributions to both the Landmand and Overton Park projects, the majority of his focus in golf architecture and construction for the past decade has been as a lead associate and shaper for Coore & Crenshaw. Trevor has had a front row seat on a number of their most high profile projects, including Cabot Cliffs, Yokohama Country Club, Cabot St. Lucia, and Torch Cay.  Trevor brings a wealth of knowledge, experience, and passion to our team, and it is Rob & Tad’s distinct honor to partner with one of the most talented people in our field.

Rob Collins, Principal Designer, was nominated as golf course architecture’s “Next Best Thing” in a December 2018 article by Golf.com.  He became interested in the field of golf course design after a trip to Saint Andrews in 1994.

An Art History major at Sewanee: The University of the South, he later obtained a graduate degree in Landscape Architecture from Mississippi State University. 

His graduate thesis, which was recognized with a national award from the American Society of Landscape Architects, addressed the environmental impact of golf course design and construction. Over the years, he developed a love of site work and designing in the field, an approach to the process that is shared by Tad and Trevor.

Additionally, he earned an MBA from The University of Missouri – Kansas City. Mark enjoyed a 9-year career in banking then founded, owned and operated two legal finance companies for 14 years prior to joining the team.
