We’re excited to welcome back Davor Bozic as our Division Lead for North Florida. He began his journey with us in 2016 as a CAD Designer right out of high school while pursuing his degree in structural engineering. In 2025, Davor expanded his experience with a more customer-facing Engineering Manager role, and now returns with even greater expertise and perspective.

“I'm grateful for the opportunity to come back to Apex to continue doing what I love while contributing to a team that feels like family,” says Davor. “I am looking forward to being part of the solution in making home ownership more attainable in our country.”

With a decade of experience in the Florida building community, we look forward to the impact Davor will make in his new role in North Florida. Welcome back!

Our office had some very special visitors on Friday! The team from K9s For Warriors and their amazing service dogs stopped by to share how they rescue and train dogs to support Veterans living with PTSD, traumatic brain injury, and military trauma, pairing them at no cost to the Veteran. Hearing the impact of these partnerships on mental health and quality of life was a powerful reminder of what true support looks like. A huge thank you to 𝗞𝟵𝘀 𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝗪𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗶𝗼𝗿𝘀 for all you do for our Veterans and for spending the day with our team.

In her free time she enjoys reading, playing the saxophone, and building things.

𝗖𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗻 studies civil and structural engineering at UNF and is looking forward to the practical application of what he’s learned so far in school in real life projects. He enjoys spending time with family and learning about new engineering topics in his spare time.

𝗞𝗮𝘁 majors in civil engineering at Florida State University, where she also pursues interests in structural and construction materials engineering. She is looking forward to working with new structures and materials in CAD, as well as making new connections and working with a team.

Third time's a charm! After a heatwave in '24 and a downpour in '25, last Thursday delivered a beautiful evening for Central Florida's largest workplace wellness event - the 𝟯𝟮𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝗻𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝗱𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗖𝗼𝗿𝗽𝗼𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝟱𝗞.

The Events Committee served up another entertaining Easter Egg Hunt at our Jacksonville headquarters yesterday. Team members searched for eggs hidden around the property during this much beloved annual event. Jacob found this year’s Golden Egg grand prize and went home with a $100 Visa gift card. Allan and Katherine were also big gift card winners. Most importantly, a good time was had by all as we enjoyed some laughs and a little pre-Easter sugar high!
