Meet the Team
Our measure isn't only in precision and workmanship, but integrity; how we show up on site and how we support and treat our partners.
Chris Smith
Chris built Elysian from the ground up, rooted in integrity, perseverance, and a lifelong respect for craftsmanship. ​
​
Though his career briefly led him into the medical field, the pull back to construction was undeniable. Building is where his curiosity, resilience, and sense of purpose align.
​
Today, as the founder and principal of Elysian Build, Chris leads with quiet strength and conviction. He brings a steady hand and a thoughtful approach to Elysian, pairing high performance with heart.


Johnee Foshay
Johnee thrives where precision meets pressure. With over twenty-five years of experience building high-end custom homes across Connecticut and Rhode Island, he brings energy, decisiveness, and mastery to every project.
A builder at heart, Johnee is drawn to the challenge — the details that demand focus, the problems that require ingenuity, the coordination that turns chaos into rhythm. As a master carpenter and equity partner at Elysian, he channels that drive into every build, ensuring that what stands at the end is nothing short of exceptional.
Elizabeth Florence
Elizabeth is a driven and detail-oriented professional who brings order and keeps the team moving forward. With a degree in Interior Design, she blends her love for the building industry with a sharp business mind to guide Elysian’s internal operations. Her steady leadership and intuitive sense for efficiency make her an essential force behind Elysian's operations.

Field Craftsmen
Our team is a dedicated group, they are energized by the challenge of the work and the shared purpose of doing something well, together.
