Christian started plumbing at sixteen — a high-school side hustle that became a lifelong trade. After graduation he served eight years in the Nebraska Air National Guard as a boom operator, refueling aircraft mid-flight while continuing to work the trade. That mix of discipline, precision, and calm under pressure still shapes how he leads today.
“Guardian stands for protection and reliability. People don’t just call plumbers — they call for help.”
A day after his final deployment in 2022, he bought a rusted box truck and launched CW Plumbing. One man. One truck. Long days, seven-day weeks, and every role at once. A few months later he hired his first apprentice — and the company started to feel real.
In 2024 the rebrand to Guardian Plumbing locked in the promise: Castle‑Worthy Service. Today the team runs four wrapped trucks with four technicians, leaning into remodels and light commercial work while growing residential service relationships across Omaha.
Away from the shop, Christian is married to Hayley — his biggest supporter through every step — and spends free time bowhunting, outdoors, and getting better in faith, business, and life.
