Kayla Whitehurst

Kayla Whitehurst is a Project Manager at Longshore Custom Homes and an Eastern North Carolina native with a lifelong appreciation for building and creating. Her interest in construction began at an early age, helping her father with projects and renovations on his rental properties.

After serving in the United States Air Force, Kayla continued developing her hands-on skills and passion for building, taking on projects of her own, including custom furniture and building a home for herself and her daughter. She holds an Associate’s degree in Construction Management Technology and brings a practical, hands-on perspective to her role.

At Longshore, Kayla oversees project schedules, coordinates subcontractors, manages budgets, and works closely with homeowners throughout the building process to keep projects organized and moving forward. Outside of work, she enjoys spending time at the beach, being on the water, and making memories with her daughter.
