Philip’s Bio
Born in Roanoke, Virginia, Phillip moved with his family to the Raleigh area at the age of four. As a young adult, he developed a passion and vision for designing homes that led him to build his first home himself and his young family. Philip has been building homes ever since, perfecting his approach to the design and construction processes and earning awards for the custom homes he has been building in the Triangle area since 1985.
Philip and his wife Mitzi are the proud parents of three children. Their daughter Brittany is working as a registered nurse. Their youngest, Anna, is a senior at the NC State Poole College of Management. She and her father may be graduating at the same time, as Philip is currently in the MBA program at Poole College’s Jenkins Graduate School. He’s hoping for a repeat of his graduation in 2012, when he crossed the stage to get his bachelor’s degree diploma on the same day as his son, Jonathan. Jonathan is working as owner/manager of Hurst Landscapes, Inc.

Life Event
Father and Son Graduate Together
Philip Hurst and Jonathan Hurst both took care a bit of unfinished business during North Carolina State University’s Spring 2013 commencement weekend.
Both father and son had started their bachelor’s degree programs in business administration at NC State a while back, then “took a few years off” to launch their businesses. For Philip, a few years became more than three decades. For his son Jonathan, it was about three years.
On May 11, 2013, both walked across the stage to pick up their diplomas during the NC State Poole College of Management’s commencement ceremony, which followed the university’s ceremony in the PNC Arena in Raleigh, N.C.
