	Jeff Cardwell President/CEO As President and CEO of Huston Electric, I have been recognized by my peers as a leader in the electrical construction industry. I am a Purdue University graduate with thirty plus years of electrical contracting experience. In addition to being involved in a number of community volunteer organizations, I enjoy photography, adventure travel and am an internationally recognized expert on tropical fish and the aquarium hobby.

With my dedicated team of construction and sales specialists, I want your experience with Huston Electric to be rewarding and enjoyable
	Jon Huston Chief Operating Officer As Chief Operating Officer and one of the owners of Huston Electric, I have experienced many changes in the last 26 years. Our 4th generation family owned business has grown from an electrical contractor to a company with four divisions specializing in electrical contracting, back-up power, signage and telecommunications. As a graduate of Purdue University, I have utilized my education in Electrical Engineering Technology to manage countless projects in Tippecanoe and surrounding counties. I enjoy hunting, fishing & spending time with my wife of 26 years Jennifer, my sons Matt and Mark and my daughter Megan. I am a long standing member of the John Purdue Club and enjoy Tailgating the home Purdue games and entertaining our customers, vendors and employees. Boiler UP!
	Steve Huston Executive Vice President I assumed the position of Executive Vice President in 1998 when my family moved back into the Kokomo Area from Lafayette. Before coming back to Kokomo (my hometown) I worked out of our Lafayette Office as a project manager. Since I have been back to Kokomo, I thoroughly enjoy managing the Kokomo Electric Division and have a great working relationship with all our field electricians, office and sales staff. As one of the owners of Huston Electric, I see a great place to work with potential to succeed for all our employees. We strive to provide a safe working environment for our staff. We have many opportunities in our communities and we succeed on the verses of hard work from our staff and workforce. On a personal level, I enjoy fishing, golf, basketball, and wood working. I have been married to Tamatha for 15 years and have twin 13 year girls.
	Jason Huston Executive Vice President I enjoy working with our customers, owners, designers, and our excellent staff of qualified and safety oriented superintendents, foreman, journeyman electricians, apprentices, and office personnel on any and all type projects. We are a family business, and have been for our entire existence since 1939. My Dad, David R. Huston believed in helping people and providing the best quality electrical service delivered by the most cost effective means. Over the years, Huston Electric, Inc. has expanded our company to be able to offer a vast array of products and services and in each service we strive to earn your respect and your business. We are thankful for the many personnel that have been with the company their entire career and each are considered like family. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family and I have three kids that keep me on the move, and I play a little guitar when they let me.

I serve on the Midwest Sign Association Board of Directors and I’m involved in the World Sign Association which collaborates with all the elite sign companies throughout the United States and Canada. We are blessed to have such great employees and customers and we will continue to nurture those relationships for years to come.
