FOUNDER

Title: President

About Wayne Bopp

I am a native Houstonian who grew up in Katy and graduated from the University of Houston with a Bachelor of Business Administration specializing in Accounting. I have two amazing daughters who I cherish everyday along with their mom. I love my work rarely taking a day off, but it is not really work if you truly love what you are doing. When I do get away from work, I spend time with my family, workout and play competitive sand volleyball a couple of times a week. Other activities I love include water skiing, snow skiing, surfing, scuba diving, and sitting on a tropical beach with one of those funny little umbrella drinks.

Wayne Bopp’s Credentials

I have spent over 25 years in the building industry. During this time, I have overseen the design and construction of over 600 custom projects. There are not very many things I have not seen or done that relates to construction. My vast years of experience with design, construction, and decorating combined with my passion that I share with the Frontier Team creates more value, greater detail, better quality, and sophisticated creativity that separates the Frontier Team and Frontier Projects from our competitors.  My management strengths include time management, quality controls, value engineered services, productivity tools, and communication. These qualities are what has grown Frontier from building one home a year to one of the largest privately owned Luxury Builders in Houston and allowed Frontier to make it through the 2008 to 2012 housing crisis when few others did.

Before Frontier, I was a manager at several different Kroger stores. Prior to Kroger I worked on construction sites doing framing and trim work while going to school. Both the Kroger management experience and construction site experience provided the stepping stones to what the Frontier Team is today.
