From a young age, I was immersed in the construction world, spending countless hours on job sites alongside my father, a dedicated carpenter with over 40 years of experience. While I played football (OL/DL) at Indiana University in the BIG10 and later built a successful career in finance as an Assistant Vice President for nine years, my passion for construction never faded. Eventually, I transitioned back into the field, joining a design-build firm to apply my business acumen to the world of construction.
 

I founded TRU Build after witnessing firsthand how many hardworking carpenters, including my father, struggled with the business side of the industry—whether it was customer service, financial management, or technology. Too often, they were undervalued, underpaid, or left overwhelmed by the complexities of running a project. TRU Build was created to change that.
 

At TRU Build, we provide a streamlined process where homeowners have a single, trusted point of contact for their remodeling projects—whether it's a kitchen, bathroom, or whole-home transformation. At the same time, we support skilled tradespeople by handling the logistical and business challenges, allowing them to focus on what they do best: building.
 

For me, TRU Build is more than a company—it's a commitment to my father, to the talented carpenters he has trained, and to the homeowners who deserve an exceptional remodeling experience.
