Chairman

EXPERIENCE SUMMARY

T. A. Loving Company’s strong desire to develop and build relationships through a team approach to construction is a direct reflection of the values and philosophy of Chairman Sam Hunter.

Sam is also an ardent advocate for the construction industry, having served as President of both Carolinas AGC and AGC of America. Additionally, Sam has served in dozens of other leadership positions for those organizations. He has served in leadership positions for the National Center for Construction Education and Research and the East Carolina School of Construction Management.
