Allen Purdy

Allen Purdy is a native Oregonian. His family moved to Medford before he was 1 and started skiing Mt. Ashland when he was 9 years old. He has fond memories of his father driving a VW van full of kids, including his brother, up to the mountain almost every weekend day. It was especially memorable because his father wasn’t a skier but would instead enjoy a good book or a nap in the lodge while they all skied.

Allen left Medford in 1987 to pursue a degree in Construction Management from California State University, Chico and ended up spending 26 years in Northern California. He returned to the Rogue Valley in 2013 with his wife Megan and three daughters as a new owner of S&B James Construction Management.

Allen and his family enjoy skiing, mountain biking, hiking and soccer. His favorite times are spending days on the mountain with them.

He also has been an active volunteer in many Rogue Valley organizations including the Medford/Jackson County Chamber, the Southern Oregon Sports Commission and Rotary.
