Hey everyone! I'm Evan. My background is in application engineering, functional design, and hands-on construction. I've also been involved in residential real estate investing and renovations, and I'm now working toward expanding into commercial real estate development, specifically small-bay industrial. I'm currently exploring opportunities in Central Indiana and Iowa, with an interest in developing multi-tenant flex and small-bay spaces that serve local businesses, contractors, and growing communities. Through my experience working at a startup, I've seen firsthand the value small-bay industrial can bring to small businesses and communities, and I want to be part of providing that opportunity. I'm new to the industrial development side of things, so I'm here to learn from those who have been through the process, share ideas, and build relationships. Looking forward to getting to know everyone and learning from the group!

Recently toured a beautiful flex project in Tomball that has a lot of great intangibles. You will see why this one commands some of the higher rates in the area and had a quick lease up timeline. They didnt use your traditional R Panel, instead got creative with different metal sheets and this one came out really well. https://youtu.be/pycn_tX1_0Y?is=OW_dF0XetP63D7PL
