Mary Huston

Mary, Brian’s wife and business partner, has always been impressed by people like her teacher John Knuth, who made even difficult learning feel rewarding and fun by celebrating students and finding inventive ways to motivate them.

Those kinds of influences shape Mary’s role today: she celebrates their client’s successes, builds connections with professional partners in the area, and helps build a firm where project teams feel seen, supported, and encouraged—not just “handled” as another job.

That’s why Brian and Mary built Trust Engineering: to combine rigorous structural thinking with the kind of mentorship, freedom, and human connection his own mentors gave him—so every client feels both protected and smarter about the structures they’re responsible for.

Mary graduated from The Classical Academy, which she attended since its original establishment in 1997. An excellent experience with her 20th high school reunion began a desire to continue to network with other alumni for mutual growth and resources of the businesses that have risen since leaving TCA.

She has a strong personal connection and is involved with Family Life Services, and has previously owned a birth doula business where she assisted with 150 deliveries, as well as in a residential treatment center for teen girls. She enjoys attending local youth theater productions through CYT and STARZ.
