Mary is originally from St. Paul, MN. but moved to Arizona to attend the University of Arizona. After graduating with an MBA, Mary moved to Phoenix and has resided in Scottsdale since 1993.

Mary’s passion for residential construction was first sparked while collaborating on the design of her family’s custom home in 1999. After the completion of this home, Mary chose to leave her 18-year career with a Fortune 100 company to work in residential construction full time. Mary applies many of the lessons learned in corporate America to her contracting business. Mary’s client-centered approach to business has resulted in Wild Development being named the “Best of Houzz” every year since 2014.

Chris Gomez, Mary’s son, joined Wild Development in 2020. Chris’ primary responsibility is the day to day management of our projects. He also has a keen sense of design and brings a fresh, new outlook to the design of our projects.
