What brought you to Kindred?
I owned JAK’s Lawnworks which is the company that gave birth to Kindred Outdoor Solutions when Caleb bought in. Now I’m excited to see where we can take this new company with an even bigger vision.
What is your favorite part of the work you do at Kindred?
I am constantly thankful for the unique opportunities to help people - whether that’s the team, our clients, our suppliers, or other contactors - by serving and seeking to inspire them.
Tell us something unique that everyone should know about you.
Just a few years ago, I was not at all a people person. By God’s grace (maybe through some maturity too) making connections with new people has become one of the most enjoyable parts of my days and my job description!

What is your favorite inspirational quote?
“Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work” - Thomas Eddison
What brought you to Kindred?
I always wanted to own a business and loved working outside. I had a lot of ideas on what I was going to do and thought I had it figured out when God threw a curveball one night Jack and I were talking. We always talked about starting different businesses together but it was made clear that Kindred Outdoor Solutions (then; JAK's Lawnworks) was the one to pursue.
What is your favorite part of the work you do here?
It's hard to pick a favorite part of the work I do because I love it all, but I'm a people person so they are my favorite part! I find a lot of joy in spending time with our team, we are a group of like-minded people who love spending time together and working hard! I also really enjoy getting to meet and develop relationships with new and existing clients!

I've tried many hobbies, but the one that stuck was photography. I mainly do it associated with Kindred Outdoor Solutions now but I love being able to capture moments with my camera when I get the chance.

“They say don't give up on your dreams so I went back to sleep.” - Unknown
What brought you to Kindred?
Well, Jack and I were roommates, he asked me if I wanted to work with them, and I said “what's the worst that could happen?” Ever since then I found a new love for landscaping and mowing. I learned much from Kindred, but I still have a lot to learn.
What is your favorite part of the work you do here?
Seeing the progress after we're done.
