Nancie is co-owner of North State Fence Builders. North State Fence Builders serves the greater triangle area in Raleigh, NC. Nancie has a degree in Interior Design and will often say that she doesn’t make it to the Interior of anyone’s homes these days. All her work is done on the exterior, yet she finds herself completely satisfied with working with her clients in this industry. North State has had tremendous growth in the eight years they have been in business in NC and has attributed that growth to its mission to offer exceptional customer service.

Nancie enjoys working her business with her husband Mark who has been her greatest supporter and teacher. Mark has been in the fence industry for 20+ years.
She also finds joy that her three sons are scattered about her day as two adult sons work for the company keeping the sentiment of “Family Owned and Operated” to heart.
Outside of the office, she enjoys her time with her four men and four dogs. Nancie loves to drum, (it is her way of being louder than those she resides with) cook, travel, and occasionally dabbles in a bit of Interior design via habitat for humanity projects. She is also currently writing a book.

Secretary 2026/27
Megan Dresner
BOARD: First Term 1/1/25-12/31/27
Megan, also known as “fence mommy” is the owner of Southern Classic Fence in Longs, SC, serving Horry County and surrounding areas. Her first 8 years in the fence industry was spent working for the late Mr. Paul Smith at Independent Fence Distributors, a wholesale and manufacturer for vinyl and aluminum products. After that, she worked for an installation company, learning the other side of this industry. Paul asked her once if she liked her job. She thought about it and said, “I enjoy working with my customers, but I am never going to ride down the road and look at a fence and think, wow, I sold that”.
Read More
All of that changed in 2022 when she opened Southern Classic Fence. Now she rides down the road and even her children say, “Look, mom! We did that!” Those moments make her heart happy. She tries to make work fun for everyone, her customers, employees and children, with playful engagements like singing any song that comes to mind at any given moment, or working out of town and staying the weekend for vacation. Oftentimes, her children (who are homeschooled) are working alongside of her. She says that it is easy to like what you do if you are having fun while you do it. “The guys I work with, they are my best friends, we have so much fun together”.
Megan loves animals; if she had the means, she would have 10 of each kind. Dogs are her favorite and she does a lot for the local shelters and rescues. Her dog, Jagger, is the face of Southern Classic and with each fence she does for a dog, she adds them to her “Dogs of SC Fence”
When she is not installing fences or doing office work, you have a 99% chance of catching her on the ballfield. There is no place on earth she would rather be than sitting behind a home plate watching her boy play baseball. She’s either in the field or at the field.
Her favorite part about NAFCA is the members. She met some of the team on a WNC project and realized that that is where she belongs, with like minded folk. On that first trip, strangers became best friends / family overnight.

Jonathan Klaczik
BOARD: (First term 1/1/26-12/31/28)
Jonathan started his career in the fence industry shortly after coming home from Iraq in 2005, with USMC 3/25 Weapons Company. What was supposed to be a short three-month “gap filler” in between going to college has become nearly a 20 year career. Since starting, he has worn nearly every hat in the industry from mixing concrete in the barrow, to sales, operations and now ownership.
Read More
Jonathan is the CEO/Founder of Veterans Fence just outside of Cleveland, Ohio. A company built on service, high-quality products and obsessing over the little things. His aspirations go well beyond growing one of the largest fence companies in Ohio. Jonathan says, “I want fencing to be a true career for anyone who wants to put in the grind. Installing fence is hard work and I’ve watched so many physically and mentally wash out over the years. I want sustained longevity for all that earn it. All steps made at my company are with the goal to expand and internally promote those that put in that grind”.
Jonathan is proud to now join the NAFCA board, where he looks forward to contributing alongside like-minded individuals. Having previously volunteered with NAFCA at Arlington Cemetery twice and at the Domestic Violence Women’s Shelter this past year, he is eager to take on more logistical roles and giving continued support.
When he’s not out working on anything fence related he can be found spending time with his wife, Kelly, and their 3 children Brianna, Alayna and Jaxon.
