Hi! We’re the family behind TRACE Wheatland Construction & Design Inc., and we’re proud to call Strathmore, Alberta home. As long-time residents, we’ve spent the past 19 years raising our family here - and now, we’re excited to introduce our family-run business to the community we know and love.

Greg Zaugg is responsible for project administration, budget and schedule management, and serves as the primary project leader during construction at TRACE. With a solid understanding of all scopes of work, he acts as the liaison between clients, consultants, trades, and suppliers - ensuring quality control, clear communication, and client satisfaction every step of the way. Greg’s experience spans estimating, project management, pre-construction planning, and subcontractor coordination. His approach is rooted in teamwork: engaging all stakeholders as collaborative partners to support a smooth, positive project experience. 

Greg holds a Bachelor of Science in Construction Management (with a Business Administration minor), is a LEED® Accredited Professional, and has completed a wide range of industry certifications in construction safety, project delivery, and building systems.

Kayley Zaugg brings years of experience in operations and team coordination to her role at TRACE. With a practical, hands-on approach and a strong eye for detail, she helps keep our day-to-day operations running smoothly. 

Kayley’s background in leading teams and streamlining processes makes her an essential part of ensuring our projects stay organized and on track. Her calm presence, problem-solving mindset, and commitment to doing things right reflect the values we hold as a family business. 

Makenzie Zaugg holds a Master of Architecture and a Bachelor’s degree in Urban Studies with a Minor in Architectural Studies from the University of Calgary. With a background rooted in both design and how people interact with the spaces around them, she brings a thoughtful, client-focused approach to every project. 

As Lead Designer at TRACE, Makenzie oversees the creative direction of each project - from initial concepts and layout planning to material selection and interior detailing. Her training includes Revit and other design software, along with hands-on experience in architectural design. What motivates her most is the opportunity to create homes that feel functional, personal, and beautiful; spaces that people genuinely love to live in.
