Meet Our Team

John & Melanie Fitzgerald
Owners, President & Accounts Payable
I am John Fitzgerald, President and Co-Owner of Veritas, and a firm believer in the power of people. As a husband to an amazing wife and a father to four incredible daughters, my passion is helping others thrive. That same mission drives how I lead at Veritas. I want to see the best in every person I work with, knowing that strong leadership means owning mistakes, celebrating successes, and always standing by our word. With a career in both facility services and construction, I’ve spent over a decade building Veritas into what it is today—forming lasting relationships with customers and trade partners. My focus for the future is to continue growing a team of talented individuals who share my passion for people while forging new relationships and strengthening old ones.
I am Melanie Fitzgerald, Co-Owner and Accounts Payable Manager at Veritas. I’m a Boise native and a Boise State graduate. After leaving my career as a sixth-grade math and science teacher to raise our family, I joined John in building and growing Veritas. Over the years, I’ve stepped in wherever needed, and now, with an incredible office team in place, I’ve found my home in accounts payable.
Outside of work, John and I share a deep passion for giving back to our community. For the past ten years, we’ve had the privilege of volunteering as 4-H leaders, investing in the next generation and supporting the youth in our area.

Matigan Strassell
I have worked with Veritas for three years! I work closely with clients to monitor billing, secure payments, and maintain accurate records for every project and account. I process invoices submitted by vendors, manage project accounts and records, and track every transaction. I also create and monitor internal processes to ensure the company runs efficiently, and I handle payroll and manage our employee benefits package.
I am a graduate of Northwest Nazarene University, where I earned my bachelor’s degrees in Mathematics and Secondary Education. My hobbies include country swing dancing with my husband, target rifle shooting, cooking, knitting, playing piano, and—of course—avoiding laundry.
One of the things I love about working with Veritas is that the projects we undertake are always different and push us out of our comfort zones. As a result, the people who work here strive to learn more and be better every day. We have an amazing team that feels like friends and family, always looking out for each other and holding each other to a biblical standard of ethics and integrity.

Malachi Tesarik
Estimator
I am a graduate from Northwest Nazarene University, where I graduated with a BS in Mechanical Engineering. At Veritas, I am one of our Estimators and training to be a Professional Engineer.
Passions of mine include languages, music, and niche sports such as hacky sack or spikeball. At school I played guitar for a traveling worship group and trombone for three ensembles. I also had the privilege to play in several Intramural sport teams.
Veritas holds strongly to practicing honesty and integrity in every facet of life and work. I am very grateful for this and clearly see how doing these things helps us and others.

Sangita Jimba
Office Assistant
I recently joined the Veritas team, and I’ve been loving every moment of it. In my role here, I’ve been working on expanding our marketing site, rebranding pages, and growing the FogPro department. I also help manage our CRM (Customer Relationship Management) system, keeping everything running smoothly on a daily basis, from filing to scheduling.
I graduated from the College of Idaho with a major in Business Administration, and specializing in Computer Science and Theatre. I’m an outdoor enthusiast—I love skiing, rafting, kayaking, hiking, and pretty much anything that gets me outside. I’m also passionate about traveling and experiencing new cultures and places.

Patricia Dale
Customer Care
I have been with Veritas for over ten years, working in facility services, where I take great pride in ensuring our work is completed with excellence. One of the most rewarding aspects of my role is getting to know and interact with both our customers and field teams, building relationships that make the job even more fulfilling.
I am deeply committed to quality and spend much of my time making sure every project meets the highest standards of care. Providing great service isn’t just a job for me—it’s a reflection of my dedication to doing things the right way for our customers.
Outside of work, I find joy in serving others and spending time with my church family. I am also a proud grandmother to eight wonderful grandkids, cherishing every moment I get with them. And of course, as a true cat lover, my sweet cats always bring extra joy to my life.

Grant Strassell
Project Manager
I have worked with Veritas since July of 2024 and it’s been an amazing experience. As a project manager, I visit job sites and manage all phases of our projects. I source materials, see that subs are scheduled and supported, and ensure every project is built to plan. My main goal is that our clients are satisfied with our products and services.
I am an Oregon native, moved here for college and never looked back. I love the outdoors and spend my free time hunting, fishing, snowboarding, camping, and working on anything with a motor.
My favorite thing about working with Veritas is that we are a Christian company that emphasize the values of truth and integrity. Our team is awesome to work with and feel like friends.
