Andy Martinez
Founder | CEO
I am passionate about working in an industry that addresses the essence of our human condition. That we are here on this earth for just a moment in time, and we would like our journey to be remembered – and to remember those who have transitioned before us. Addressing mortality – the great equalizer – is both meaningful and humbling.
I appreciate the honor and responsibility of having worked with cemeteries and funeral homes in areas of diverse demographics representing almost every ethnicity, culture, religion, and level of wealth on our planet. I embrace these cultural interactions and consider them among life’s most enriching experiences. Developing cemetery inventory, funeral practices, and marketing to serve these diverse communities – is my vocation.
Being creative, visionary, and solution-oriented are qualities that have led me to influence various ground-breaking projects within the United States including; the tallest mausoleum, the deepest burial section, the first Day of the Dead celebration, and other cultural events on cemetery grounds, the first green/natural burial projects, and to become a U.S. Patent and Trademark holder (more soon to follow!).
Nothing inspires me more than to develop a cemetery making the best use of the land available, thereby; extending its primary market, bringing in more customers within its existing market, significantly increasing the life-span of the cemetery, promoting sustainability, and building inventory which will be unique, which will be remembered, which will stand the test of time.
