Matt Yozman joined the Garrett team in 2018 as a Project Superintendent. After a year and a half, he transitioned to the Director of Quality Assurance and Quality Control and is now Director of Construction. We’re lucky to have Matt join our team after he heard about TGC through a grapevine of subcontractors. When the timing was right, Matt took the leap and never looked back. Fun fact: before starting his career in construction, Matt was in sales for nearly eight years!
Matt studied at Purdue and got his bachelor’s degree in Management and associate degrees in Marketing and Industrial Supervision. He was born and raised in LaPorte, Indiana, and lives there today with his wife and children. He travels frequently for his role and can typically be found on-site at one of our many projects rather than behind a desk. He has worked on every Garrett project over the past couple years and certainly keeps busy. For Matt, each day is a little different but the one thing that is constant is his morning iced caramel coffee from Dunkin’ Donuts.
Matt works with each site team to help ensure their projects get across the finish line. Matt will navigate and find solutions for scheduling concerns, answer questions, keep a high standard for the quality of our projects, and assist with any unresolved issues that affect the overall timing of the finished project. In addition, he helps coordinate Procore training and implementation. Matt finds his job very rewarding as he enjoys being involved in the problem-solving process with the on-site construction teams. With his new role, Matt will be overseeing construction in Colorado Springs, Parker, and Indiana.
When Matt isn’t on a job site, he is at home enjoying quality time with his family. In his free time, he enjoys working on home improvement projects, finding designer pieces of mid-century modern furniture, spending time on the beach, and collecting autographed sports jerseys. Over the years he’s collected over 80 autographed jerseys and his favorite is a Chicago Cubs, Ernie Banks jersey. He’s a lifelong Cubs fan and is still stoked about their World Series win.
The Garrett Companies is grateful for Matt’s grit, dedication, and hard work. If you see him around, thank him for doing such a great job on our projects, or ask him how the Cubs will be next year.
