Ron puts the G in GHP.

But that’s not all he brings to the table. He has worked on projects ranging from designing the interior of a space station to planning the newest AAA ballpark to hit Music City, and through all of it there is one constant – living up to his promises.

According to Ron what makes GHP so successful is doing what he says he’ll do - give clients excellent quality, at a good value and in an ethical way, while offering the best service in the industry.

That’s a lot to live up to!

With top-notch clients like HCA, Marriott Hotels and Metro Nashville who keep coming back project after project, it’s evident that Ron and his team consistently fulfill those promises.

Outside the office you can find Ron (attempting to) ace his friends on the tennis court, in the boat on Old Hickory Lake or cheering on the Vols, his alma mater, during football season.

While Ron has received a number of awards throughout his career, he’s most proud of his induction into the College of Fellows for the American Institute of Architects. Well, that and his magic tricks.

With more than 20 years of industry experience, Dominique Arrieta, AIA, is a born builder.

An architect by trade, Dominique is ultimately an entrepreneur at heart and passionate about cultivating sustainable development in the structures, companies, and communities around her.

Forward-thinking and growth-minded, Dominique has reimagined GHP as a historic company with a pioneering spirit after assuming leadership as president and CEO in 2015. Infusing GHP’s more than 40-year-old legacy of client commitment, environmental expertise, and industry innovation with modern-day efficiencies, she led the initiative to transform Gobbell Hays Partners (GHP) into GHP, Inc., a Women’s Business Enterprise (WBE).

Growing GHP into a multimillion-dollar company, Dominique and her team continue to scale for success and mobilize the company down a strategic growth path. Her approach to leadership centers around active listening and learning—driven by a commitment to create positive impact on both the company and community levels.

A long-standing supporter of local arts and culture, Dominique remains active in the development of Nashville’s 5th Avenue of the Arts and invested in other civic and community-building initiatives.

Her passion for building follows her home to the Tennessee countryside where she and her husband, Jorge, custom-designed and built their “modern farmhouse”-style home. There, the two can be found reading, hiking, or building forts with their daughter, Frances, and son, Nikolas.
