Tracy Keyser | NAHB’s Building Systems Councils (BSC) recently honored Tracy Keyser, vice president of M&T Bank’s Systems-Built Division, for advancing the building systems industry and contributing to the efforts of the BSC.
Keyser recieved the S.A. Walters Systems-Built Achievement Award during a ceremony at the BSC’s annual SHOWCASE conference and trade show at Marco Island, Fla. in October.
"Tracy Keyser’s hard work and dedication to the systems-built industry makes her very deserving of the S.A. Walters Systems-Built Achievement Award,” said Lynn Gastineau, owner of Gastineau Log Homes headquartered in New Bloomfield, Mo. “She also joins a very elite group. Only two women have won the S.A. Walters Award since its creation in 1986.”
Gastineau, who presented the award at SHOWCASE, was the first woman to recieve the award. She was honored in 2001.
Keyser has been an active BSC member since 1998. She served as president of the BSC Associates Council from 2001 to 2003 and was a member of the councils’ board of trustees from 2002 to 2007. She has been an active member of the BSC’s membership committee since 2004 as well as its sales and marketing committee.
In 2007, Keyser received the BSC’s “Top 30 Under 40 Award,” which recognizes emerging leaders in the systems-built industry.
Keyser, who has more than 15 years of mortgage construction lending experience, began her career with Keystone Financial in 1994 and was serving as the bank’s vice president of its systems-built division when M&T purchased the bank in 2000.
The S.A. Walters award is named after the first chairman of the BSC.
