My main goal on ever task G&L gets awarded is customer satisfaction. From conceptual design to years after on preventative maintenance of facilities. Customers satisfaction and belief in our services is the most upmost importance.

I have been in the mechanical trade since 2005. Starting as a pre-apprentice sweeping the floors, not knowing what all the mechanical trade encompassed. I joined the Plumbing and Steamfitters Local 166 Union and quickly progressed through apprenticeship, journeyman, and foreman. Performing installations, service calls, and startups of brand-new facilities and renovations alike.

I have held positions of Assistant Service Manager, Sales Manager, and currently Vice President of Mechanical & Refrigeration Division. With an Associate’s Degree of Applied Science from IVY tech I have earned multiple licenses and certifications through ICC, Pearson VUE, Garden City Ammonia Program, Untied Association.

In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my wife and two kids, golfing, hunting, and fishing.
