Alan B Collier is a 7th-8th generation Latter-day Saint who grew up in Western North Carolina as the fifth of ten children. He served a mission in Arizona and Mexico. Alan graduated BYU-Provo in Construction Management.  In his career, Alan worked almost 20 years for one of the Intermountain West’s largest contractors and then equally as long as the owner of a general contracting firm.  His first exposure to church construction began as a deacon listening to a brother talk about building the first branch meetinghouse in western NC.  Alan has since been associated with hundreds of new builds, remodels, and maintenance projects for The Church across North America, including projects as large as the Conference Center and as simple as repairing a carpet run in a local meetinghouse.  He has contracted with Church Meetinghouse Facilities, Special Projects, Seminaries, Welfare, Priesthood, as well as with private equity divisions of The Church. Alan also serves on a various non-profit boards, manager at several running events, and is vice president of his homeowner association.  He was a chaplain for The Church at the 2010 and 2013 National Jamborees.  Alan currently serves on the Mesa Temple Events Committee and in his spare time is a hiker, kayaker and cyclist.
