Owner/CEO at MCM Outdoor Living
I started MCM Outdoor Living in 2015 after learning the trade from my dad, who spent his career as a contractor. Growing up around job sites gave me a foundation that no classroom could replicate. I understood materials, timelines, and what it actually takes to build something that lasts before I ever ran my own crew. Before construction, I spent years in hospitality managing restaurants and retail operations. That background changed how I approach every project. When you run a restaurant, communication isn't optional. Guests expect to know what's happening, and if something goes wrong, how you handle it matters more than the problem itself. I brought that mindset into construction, where homeowners too often feel left in the dark. At MCM, clients get a clear schedule from day one, and they always know what's next. I hold an Associate degree in Project Management from Dallas College, and over the past 10 years I've personally overseen the design and construction of pools, decks, pergolas, paver patios, covered patios, and complete outdoor living spaces across the Dallas–Fort Worth area. To date, we've served 500+ families and completed more than 60 custom pool builds, 550+ outdoor living spaces, and 75+ outdoor kitchens throughout Frisco, McKinney, Plano, Allen, Lewisville, and the surrounding communities. MCM Outdoor Living is A+ BBB Accredited, a certified TrexPro Builder, a Techo-Pro Contractor, and a Belgard Authorized Contractor. We install Jandy pool equipment and handle permitting and HOA submissions in-house, so homeowners don't have to navigate that process alone. We back every project with a simple commitment: done in 3 months or you get $5,000. If I'm asking someone to trust me with their home, I need to be accountable to a real standard, not just a promise. My brother-in-law and business partner Chris Weaks runs the operations side of MCM, keeping the logistics and financials tight so I can stay focused on what I do best: designing backyards that families actually use and building them the way I'd build my own.
