He has been involved in a few startups, from a wireless internet service provider in the Midwest, to a moving and storage company franchise. Greg became involved in disaster restoration at Service Master in Des Moines for five years. There he secured new projects and managed the projects to completion. He became certified in several areas of restoration, including water, smoke/fire, and odor restoration. From there he became interested in learning the insurance side of the restoration business, so he studied and became a multi-line claims adjuster for ACE, specifically the Rain & Hail, Farm & Ranch division. Through handling large loss P&C claims for farm and ranch policyholders throughout the United States and working closely with underwriters, he obtained a clear understanding of the carriers’ claims process including strategy and settlement. Greg and his wife Jessica moved to Denver at the end of 2012. He worked for a local roofing company managing their estimation and production departments. Greg felt there was more to his path and decided it was best to directly serve the Community and Clients with his knowledge of all sides of the industry. This led him to join a public adjusting firm in Nov. 2014 to help investigate, plan, and estimate commercial building and HOA projects. He joined Hammersmith Construction in May 2019 to further his experience managing construction projects in the HOA industry. Greg holds his Class C General Contractor Certification. Outside of work, Greg dedicates his time to his son and daughter, wife Jessica, and their two dogs Yoshi and Chloe.
