Dominique Arrieta, AIA
President and Chief Executive Officer
With more than 20 years of industry experience, Dominique Arrieta, AIA, is a born builder.
An architect by trade, Dominique is ultimately an entrepreneur at heart and passionate about cultivating sustainable development in the structures, companies, and communities around her.
Forward-thinking and growth-minded, Dominique has reimagined GHP as a historic company with a pioneering spirit after assuming leadership as president and CEO in 2015. Infusing GHP’s more than 40-year-old legacy of client commitment, environmental expertise, and industry innovation with modern-day efficiencies, she led the initiative to transform Gobbell Hays Partners (GHP) into GHP, Inc., a Women’s Business Enterprise (WBE).
Growing GHP into a multimillion-dollar company, Dominique and her team continue to scale for success and mobilize the company down a strategic growth path. Her approach to leadership centers around active listening and learning—driven by a commitment to create positive impact on both the company and community levels.
A long-standing supporter of local arts and culture, Dominique remains active in the development of Nashville’s 5th Avenue of the Arts and invested in other civic and community-building initiatives.
Her passion for building follows her home to the Tennessee countryside where she and her husband, Jorge, custom-designed and built their “modern farmhouse”-style home. There, the two can be found reading, hiking, or building forts with their daughter, Frances, and son, Nikolas.
