Meet The Team

Daniel Dodd

FOUNDER + CEO

Daniel first entered the build industry working as a Carpenter while attending the University of Arkansas, where he created many custom pieces ranging from furniture to cabinets, and many other forms of woodwork. Since then, Daniel has spent over 15 years working in the custom home-building industry and quickly realized there was a large need for more trustworthy and honest builders that clients could rely on, and know they are in good hands throughout the home-building process.

In 2020 Daniel founded Hudson Builders to bridge that gap and create homes that reflect our clients’ dreams while focusing on the goal of creating a sound investment for them.

Trevor Farnham

PROJECT MANAGER

Trevor ventured into the home-building industry with a profound purpose; To contribute to the creation of spaces for people to live and enjoy for years to come, whether it be for first-time home buyers, couples looking to expand and make room for their growing family, or those seeking an upgraded and more luxurious abode. However, Trevor's true passion lies in custom builds.

"I love custom builds because we get to take something old and make it new again. Giving that same joy and excitement to the homeowners to enjoy for years on end."

Other than custom builds Trevor has a strong passion for his country, firearms, anything chocolate or baked, and enjoys a glass of fine bourbon! When he's not busy managing projects, Trevor is most likely training for his next NPC competition, or spending time with his wife and three children.

Kellie Larez

PROJECT COORDINATOR

Kellie has over 12 years of experience in the design industry and has a degree in Interior Architecture and Design. With a love for all things interiors and as a designer by trade, naturally, Kellie was drawn to the home-building industry.

“Facilitating the concept to become reality is so very satisfying! I thoroughly enjoy seeing the look on a client’s face when they see the finished product. It’s priceless!”

In addition to managing the social media and website for Hudson Builders, Kellie works directly with both Daniel and Trevor, aiding in the coordination of ongoing projects, and is involved in the day-to-day business operations. Outside of Hudson Builders, Kellie can be found volunteering, traveling, spending time with her friends and family, or going for a run through the beautiful landscapes of Austin.
