I am blessed with a wonderful wife of over 20 years and two great boys ages 10 & 11. We live in the rural community of East Troy where I designed and built our family home about 12 years ago. We enjoy waterskiing/wakeboarding/barefooting/boating as well as four-wheeling/motox in the summer and snow skiing/boarding along with snowmobiling in the winter. I’m an avid woodworker and enjoy building typical to eccentric projects in my wood shop.
I grew up in and have loved the construction industry for as long as I can remember. I was raised the grandson of a cabinetmaker, and thanks to him, I was exposed to the importance of excellence, quality, honesty, and service from an early age by a true craftsman.
I graduated from Mukwonago High School in 1986 and went on to the UW Platteville School of Engineering. After college, I worked for several [industry related] employers from whom I gained valuable experience in project/business management, customer service, leadership, sales, and customer service.
In 2003, with a partner, I founded a residential design-build contracting company specializing in custom homes and remodeling incorporating Green-Building practices. Our business grew and expanded, and I sold my shares of the business to my partners in 2016.
I then joined Team Stebnitz in mid-2016 as a remodeling consultant. This was a great synergy; the depth of quality personnel within the Stebnitz organization coupled with my years of experience and passion for the industry allows us to now serve you even better.
Some examples of my efforts to better our Industry, our Company, our Community and myself
