Mike Kelly will take the role of Chief Executive Officer at McGuinn Hybrid Homes beginning Monday (Aug. 21.)

Wade McGuinn announced the decision. He is stepping away from the company’s leadership role. Kelly, who was the CFO, is his second in command. The McGuinn Hybrid Homes home office is on Sunset Boulevard in West Columbia.

“Since Mike joined us in 2001, he has steadily helped steer our company through many of our biggest milestones, around obstacles, and to our greatest achievements. With Mike’s passion, vision and expertise, he’ll continue to drive our organization to accomplish our mission – to transform lives by delivering great homes that strengthen communities.”
