NAHB to honor Designee of the Year Award winners at 2013 International Builders' Show

The National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) will honor 11 housing professionals for their outstanding service in elevating the image of NAHB designations. The 2012 Designee of the Year award winners will be recognized at the 2013 International Builders' Show (IBS) in Las Vegas.

"NAHB strives to improve professionalism and elevate the building and remodeling industries through education. One of the best ways to achieve this is earning a NAHB professional designation," said Gaye Orr, CMP, MIRM, chair of the NAHB Education Committee and a sales and marketing professional from Raleigh, N.C. "By presenting the Designee of the Year awards, NAHB is honoring individuals who fully embrace these ideals and stand out as leading professionals in their fields. In addition to incorporating innovative practices and techniques which ultimately benefit customers, they shine a positive light on our industry and inspire others to reach the next stage of their careers."
