After graduating with a B.S. in Speech Communication in 1997, she worked at several radio stations in management roles focusing on continuity, music and production as well as serving as an on-air talent continuously for more than ten years. In 2010, Pamela accepted a position as the Assistant Marketing and Development Director for the Eisemann Center in Richardson, TX. Helping to promote, market and develop the City of Richardson’s performing arts center, she succeeded in implementing and managing all social media marketing as well as creating and directing a first-ever student art exhibit, further strengthening her marketing and organizational talents.
In 2013, Pamela made the difficult but exciting decision to leave her position at the Eisemann Center to join her soon-to-be husband Tony Heady on the road full time as he focused on work in California. Since then, she has become a part of the TPGC team contributing organizational support for project managers, engineers, programmers and clients. The opportunity to apply her knowledge and skills and be able to engage in a completely new industry has been an exciting one. She has generated custom downtime reports, assisted with AP/AR for clients, provided line and tank labeling solutions and created 3D renderings of proposed projects, all while learning and gaining experience in an industry that was new to her.
When not traveling with Tony for work on his many projects, she enjoys being at their ranch cultivating their cattle business, practicing her photography, hunting and fishing. She also has a trophy and wants a scissor lift.

Bryant began his career at Crepaco warehouse in parts distribution and pump assembly. Then he progressed to field installation for process and ammonia systems where he oversaw welding and fitting both sanitary tubing and ammonia piping systems.He then moved to San Antonio, spent a year as a contract fabricator with H-E-B Foods working for Sanitary Welding Services. At the end of his contract he returned to the DFW area with Alloy Equipment doing installation, crew management, and scheduling. There he remained through the buyout by Statco Fabrication and Engineering, which resulted in his 25 combined years with them moving into engineering and sales departments.
Steward left Statco to join Harvill Industries’ engineering team for three years to grow their business and was successful in this endeavor. When the opportunity to work for The Project Group came along it was an opportunity he could not pass as he knew many of the founders for years and held them in high respect.
Through the years Bryant has worked projects ranging from a few hundred dollars to several million dollars, and dirt to distribution provided him a well-rounded education in the business of projects and processing. While he doesn’t proclaim to be an engineer, as he doesn’t have a degree, his 30-plus years of process fabrication, installation, and design experience makes him quite capable to support customers’ needs.
Equally committed on the home front, Bryant enjoys spending time with his wife of 35 years, daughter and 2 grandkids. He’s a pretty good hunter too.
