What It's About
For Garrett Gilkey, while the NFL was his dream, home building was his calling. The former NFL lineman turned design-build expert has family roots in the industry and actually attended the International Builders' Show as a child. In the years that followed, the game of football led him on an incredible journey from All-American at Chadron State to 2013 draftee of the Cleveland Browns. Along the way, he met now business partner Ryan Jensen, 10-year NFL veteran and Super Bowl winning center for the Tampa Bay Bucs. In this fascinating Game Changer keynote, Gilkey and Jensen share their story of setbacks, successes and commitment to unwavering excellence which led to the creation and recent expansion of Gilk Design Build, their award-winning custom home building company based in Tampa.
