Meet The Team | Will Hays

Christina Mullins • September 15, 2021

Fall may be less than a week away, but it certainly does not seem like it along the Gulf Coast. The busiest part of storm season is here, and we are certainly incredibly busy with recovery of Hurricane Ida. No matter what, I always find time to highlight a different team member each month!


For September, we spotlight Will Hays, who is a technician at our Gulfport branch.


Meet the Team: Roll Tide Roll 

Will was born and raised in Orlando, Florida. During his high school years, he and his family moved to the Gulfport, Mississippi area. Upon his high school graduation, he attended Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College, where he majored in education and coaching. Although he did not complete that program, he hopes to go back to receive a degree. 


While at MGCCC, Will found himself looking to find trade that was different from what he had initially majored in. Before joining our team in October 2020, he worked in the apartment maintenance industry. Since starting at GRS, he has learned a lot about the restoration industry. Most recently, he has been learning to lead crews and has been working with our large loss team on Hurricane Ida recovery projects in the New Orleans area.


When he is not working, Will likes to spend time with his family and loved ones. He does this by going out to eat, hanging outside or relaxing at the house. He also enjoys watching sports, especially Alabama Crimson Tide Football. 



Meet the Team: We Are Family

As I was working on this article, I asked him what he likes about working at GRS, he stated, “It’s family. The thing I love about working for GRS is that everyone argues, gets stressed out, gets tired, and the list goes on. Despite this, we still show up the next day and punch in to get the job done. We know that we have a lot of respect for each other. This industry is not made for everyone, but we know we can get each and every job done.”


To connect with Will, reach out to him via email.

At Guarantee Restoration Services, our people are at the heart of everything we do. This month, we’re excited to introduce Christy Jones Huff , a Business Development Representative at our Jackson, Mississippi Branch who joined the team just over a year ago in January 2024 . From Property Management to Business Development Christy’s journey to GRS started long before she stepped through our doors. A Jackson State University graduate , she earned her degree in Mass Communications/Public Relations with a minor in Marketing . She then spent 19 years as a property manager , gaining invaluable experience in building relationships and problem-solving, which are skills that now serve her well in business development. It is safe to say that she is well-versed in the multifamily vertical that we serve, but she also works with several other industries, such as state entities and housing authorities.  Life Outside of Work Originally from Farmhaven, MS , Christy stays busy outside of work with a full house. She’s married, a proud mom to a college-aged son, and spends most of her free time keeping up with a very active toddler —a job she jokingly refers to as "taming a toddler." When she finds a rare quiet moment, she enjoys crafting, though she explained that those moments are few and far between these days.
