Our Team

Kevin McNulty

Kevin joined Lifestyle Home Builders in 2004 as the Land Acquisition Specialist and eventually was promoted to President in 2008. In 2016, he purchased Lifestyle Homes when the founder, Lloyd Poe, retired. He is a big believer in servant leadership and recognizes that the most valuable contribution he can make to the company is to ensure that the right people are in the right roles. “Then I get out of the way and let our great people be great!”

The most favorite part of the job … is seeing the people on our team excel in what they do.

Jen Martin

Jen acts as the guardian of all things financial throughout the new home construction process.
