Field Service

RYAN DESMOND
Field Operations Manager

Accomplishments
I’ve been with Mid-States for over 10 years. As a foreman, I’ve had the opportunity to work on some of our biggest projects, including Ellinwood and Wicker Park. I’m also a proud dad of two and lucky to be married to an amazing wife.

Off the Clock
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, going on vacations, golfing, and being out on the boat. I also stay busy helping my wife bring her DIY visions to life as we renovate our river home.

Secret Life
I once led a water bike aerobics class in Punta Cana.

Accomplishments
I have been with Mid-States for 22 years doing various jobs in the Production/Shipping/Scheduling Department. My current title is Field Scheduling Manager. I come from a long line of family members who have devoted many years at Mid-States.

Off the Clock
Proud mother of two sons and one daughter. I enjoy all kinds of music and love getting together with family for any occasion.

Accomplishments
Prior to Mid-States, I framed houses for 15 years. I was able to build our master suite addition from the ground up in four days by myself. I’m always willing to lend a hand to friends for various projects and feel proud that I can always be counted on and considered a “jack of all trades” at my age.

Off the Clock
I enjoy hunting and fishing at our property in Black River Falls and camping trips with the family. Some say I golf too much though I think it’s not enough, and if I’m not golfing, I’m thinking of my next round.

Secret Life
Owner and operator of “whatever project my wife comes up with next.” When I was 12, I was announced in the starting lineup for the Milwaukee Brewers and met Geoff Jenkins in left field.
