Our Team

Donny Walloch (President)

In the beginning, he spent much of his time between classes creating and building for the hospitality group that he quickly became an investing partner with. After graduating Georgia Southern University with a degree in Mechanical Engineering Technology, Donny maintained the creative mind and manager behind many of the investments of his hospitality partnership while branching off on his own to create Walix Corporation in 2004. Once he received his General Contracting License he quickly escalated Walix Corp to a leader in the Atlanta, GA market by utilizing his own experiences in hospitality architecture, project management, and construction for other clients. Spending much of the next 15 years building for new and repeat clients throughout the southeast, Donny had found success in an often-difficult field to be in during the “great recession”.

In 2017, Donny and long time friend Martin Medrano teamed up to excel Walix Corporation to a commercial and residential powerhouse. With much of the labor being company self-performed to control quality and cost, the company found itself able to venture into many aspects of residential building while broadening it commercial capabilities.

Currently, Donny and Walix Corporation enjoy the success of a thriving commercial construction company in both private and government sectors. And thanks to the business partnership with Mr. Medrano, Development and Residential divisions are also quickly becoming staples in an already long history of quality and commitment.
