CASPER, Wyo. — Wyoming Governor Mark Gordon has appointed a new director to the Wyoming State Construction Department.
Jerry Vincent will replace Interim Director Mel Muldrow as director of the department, Gordon’s office said Thursday. Muldrow will continue to serve as administrator of the Construction Management Division.
“Jerry’s experience and leadership stood out amongst a strong pool of applicants for this position,” Gordon said. “His work in state general construction, as well as his expertise working with municipalities, school districts and universities, will serve him well in this critical role.”
Gordon also thanked Muldrow for “outstanding service” during his time as interim director.
“A native of Minnesota, Vincent comes to Wyoming from the West coast, where he has served the K-12, Higher Education, and County level programs for the past twenty-five years,” the governor’s office said. “Vincent’s experience is largely in design, construction, facilities/planning, and maintenance/operations.”
“He has been responsible for over a dozen major capital improvement programs that include property acquisition, facilities needs assessments, and master planning along with design and construction. Vincent has also served as a Chief Operating Officer with expanded roles and responsibilities.”
