Meet Joanne Tilghman
Chief Design Officer

Joanne Tilghman, affectionately known as "Jo," serves as the Chief Design Officer here at Tilghman Builders. Her roots trace back to Hatboro, where she spent her formative years and attended Upper Moreland High School. It was in this very town that she met her life partner, Bob, and together they built a life, raised their children, and established Tilghman Builders.

Joanne’s prowess lies in the realm of design, where her creativity and vision bring her client’s home renovation dreams to life. She excels in collaborating with clients, presenting them with a myriad of ideas before seamlessly translating them into tangible plans for the architect.  As a key figure in #TeamTilghman, she appreciates the caring and supportive atmosphere that permeates the group. She considers herself fortunate to have such a dedicated team by her side.

Beyond her professional endeavors, Joanne finds joy in various activities. Despite “slowing down a bit”, she remains an avid runner. Her interests extend to happy hours with friends, golfing, decorating and painting spaces. She loves watching the transformation of a room, and seeing how a room can be elevated with a simple change of color. However, her heart is fullest when spending time with her children and, especially, her grandchildren. One of her guilty pleasures is ice cream, and she's not above sneaking out for a treat from Dairy Queen or Rita’s, cleverly concealing the evidence by hiding the wrappers. About a year ago, she revealed this sweet secret to her family, who all found joy in it and it deepened the bond within the Tilghman clan.

Joanne often brings her A-Game to most occasions, and many see her as outgoing and confident. However, she harbors a quiet and shy side not immediately apparent. Nevertheless, when the occasion calls for it, Jo effortlessly brings her charm and charisma. In terms of life goals, Joanne has a simple vision: to maintain a healthy mind and body, ensuring she and Bob can celebrate their 100th wedding anniversary surrounded by their loving family. The journey towards this milestone is marked by Jo's dedication to well-being, both personally and within the tight-knit Tilghman Builders family.
