## Meet Connor Kieckbusch: Our Newest Commercial Flooring Estimator
We're excited to introduce Connor Kieckbusch, who recently joined our Santa Fe Springs TCT team as a Commercial Flooring Estimator. After graduating college and transitioning from his role as a casino floor runner in his college town, Connor brings fresh energy and a strong work ethic to our growing team.
### From Montana to California
Born and raised in Billings, Montana, Connor has recently made the move to Corona, California. Like many new transplants to the Golden State, he's still discovering all the local gems but is already recommending visitors experience California's diverse offerings—from sporting events and beach destinations to attractions like Universal Studios.
### Life Beyond the Office
When he's not estimating commercial flooring projects, you'll find Connor on the golf course or exploring his new city with friends and family. His recent college graduation stands out as a favorite memory from the past year, particularly the lifelong friendships he formed along the way.
### What Connor Brings to Tangram

**Outgoing Personality**: His experience working directly with casino customers has honed his communication skills—essential for collaborating with contractors, architects, and project managers in commercial design.
**Eagerness to Learn**: Fresh from college and new to the commercial flooring industry, Connor brings the valuable perspective of someone ready to grow with our company and absorb industry knowledge.
### Personal Touches
Connor's diverse sports loyalties reflect his journey from Montana to California—he cheers for the Minnesota Vikings, Denver Nuggets, and Duke Blue Devils. He's also got a sweet tooth, particularly for sour candy, and lives by the philosophy of taking chances and trusting your gut.
### Looking Forward
Connor is particularly excited about joining what he sees as an excellent team within a successful and innovative company. His combination of work ethic, learning mindset, and interpersonal skills positions him well for success in commercial flooring estimation—a role that requires both technical accuracy and strong client relationships.
