<div role="presentation">Michael started as our Quality Controls Coordinator on February 2, 2026. Pleasanton, Texas, is his hometown, and he has lived in Poteet, Texas, for the last three years until he received a job opportunity with Gribbins. He is excited for the opportunity to continue growing his career in the insulation industry as QA/QC and appreciates how welcoming the team members have been in helping him get here. Before joining Gribbins, he worked as a field insulator for 24 years, progressing from apprentice to journeyman, foreman, and general foreman. He has worked in both the commercial and industrial sectors, and traveling has given him extensive hands-on experience with mechanical insulation systems and working with people. He entered the insulation trade in 2001, joined HFIAW Local 87 in 2008, and completed his apprenticeship, receiving his mechanic’s card. His favorite part of the job is working with his hands, the constantly changing insulation projects, and being part of seeing projects through from the ground up to completion. He also values the brotherhood and sisterhood out in the field. When asked who inspires him the most, Michael said, “My grandpa, dad, and uncles are hard workers who all worked many roles in their careers in the pipeline industry. I want my daughter to see my hard work and know that she can do anything as long as she puts in the effort.” Outside of work, he enjoys hiking, swimming, tubing down the river, going camping, firing up the BBQ pit to grill and smoke meat, and spending time with family.</div>

<div role="presentation">Jordan started as our Project Manager/Estimator on January 5, 2026. He is from Newburgh, Indiana and attended Ivy Tech, where he earned an Associate’s degree in Applied Science. Jordan is excited for the opportunity to expand his skill set. He takes pride in being a valued asset and looks forward to growing his knowledge while building relationships with customers and coworkers. His favorite part of the job is providing a service that’s worth paying for. He values working hard, being productive, and being someone others can rely on. He also enjoys finding creative solutions to solve problems and making everyone’s job easier. Before joining Gribbins, Jordan worked in the Carpenters Union building scaffold since 2014, gaining experience alongside some of the best scaffold builders in the area. This background gave him the skills to provide accurate quotes and develop creative solutions to challenges others may not have encountered. He understands what it takes to complete jobs safely and on time and has learned how to communicate professionally with coworkers and other contractors. He is especially grateful to Matt and Clay for taking the time to coach him and provide the guidance and tools that helped him succeed. When asked who inspires him the most, Jordan said, “My family inspires me to be the best version of myself I can be. I understand that to be successful it takes knowledge, determination, and hard work. Without them, I wouldn&#8217;t have anything to work for. They make working hard worth it.” Outside of work, he enjoys spending time with his family, being outdoors, and camping.</div>
