I have been with Morgan Contractors for over five years, starting in the field and working my way up to my current role as Chief Financial Officer. Throughout my career, I have gained valuable experience in marketing, civil, and structural project management, which has shaped my approach to financial leadership and strategic planning.

I graduated from Tabor College in 2016 with a degree in Business Administration, concentrating in Management and Marketing. My diverse background allows me to bring a well-rounded perspective to financial operations, ensuring that we maintain efficiency, growth, and long-term success.

Outside of work, I enjoy woodworking, kayaking, and spending time with my wife and children. Whether I’m crafting something by hand or exploring the outdoors, I find balance and inspiration in both my personal and professional life.

I recently joined Morgan Contractors after spending nearly 15 years working for a leading Systems Integration Company. Prior to that, I worked over two decades in various leadership roles within the Beef Industry. I have a great deal of experience in Project Management of Complex Projects, Systems Implementation and Staff Development. I am passionate about understanding the needs and aspirations of each our clients to the degree necessary so that they have a deep confidence and comfort in knowing that Morgan Contractors is going to take care of their needs and ensure that we deliver what they want and what we promised.

In terms of team building, I am dedicated to some very basic teamwork guidelines; such as quickly creating a plan to deviate from and then refactoring this plan as necessary, starting every project and significate undertaking with a clear vision of the end goals, understanding all the key elements of any activity by asking these simple questions – (who, what, when, where, why, why not and how) and finally always making sure to lead by example and helping my teammates achieve their own goals and objectives.

As a former college athlete, I am still inspired and driven by the thrill of taking on complex projects that have tight timelines and various other challenges and then through great teamwork of our Morgan Contractors Team – finding a way to overcome all of these “opportunities” and achieving the end goal of a successful project and a happy / satisfied client.

In my spare time, I enjoy taking long walks and enjoying my natural surroundings as well improving my landscaping around my home. I am a huge sports fanatic and enjoy watching & attending all kinds of professional and college sporting events. My wife and I have a large family that is scattered across the Midwest and we enjoy visiting with them as well as hosting them at our own home.

I have over 20 years of management experience, leading, teaching, and mentoring junior managers and hourly employees. I believe in leading by example and always striving to be the best at what I do—while training my team to do the same.

For me, safety and quality go hand in hand, and I expect every service we provide to be exemplary, setting a standard that exceeds expectations. I am passionate about customer satisfaction and committed to maintaining outstanding customer service in every aspect of our work.

Outside of work, I take pride in being a supportive husband and enjoy spending time hunting. I also have a deep appreciation for fine whiskies and consider myself a connoisseur.

As Director of Kansas City Local for Morgan, I bring a strong background in welding, asphalt, and concrete to every project. After graduating from Liberty High School in 2007, I pursued my passion for skilled trades at Tulsa Welding School, graduating in 2009.

I take pride in delivering high-quality work and ensuring our team meets the highest standards of craftsmanship and efficiency. Leadership and teamwork are at the core of my approach, and I am committed to maintaining excellence in every project we take on.

I am a Project Manager at Morgan Contractors, where I oversee every stage of our projects—from coordinating crews and schedules to managing budgets and billing. With a year and a half of experience in this role and a background of college-level study, I take a hands-on, detail-oriented approach to keeping projects on track and clients informed.

Leading by example, boots on the ground, solving problems and striving to be the best is my goal. I always want to provide the team with the tools to succeed.

Safety is one of my core valves. I believe safety is integrated in the thought process and everyone’s actions. I have a deep commitment to safety. Another core valve for me is quality and accountability. I believe this involves taking ownership of one’s work, striving for excellence, and being honest about outcomes and this includes mistakes. Building trust, improving performance and driving collective success is very important for customer service.

Outside of work, I love spending time with my wife and family. I also enjoy helping others.
