After completely owning the Architectural Engineering and Building Construction courses at Southeast Community College, Dustin went to work framing houses.  When he wasn't eating his lunches from the tops of the roofs he was learning valuable skills that can't be taught in the classroom.  After framing houses he worked for a local home builder for the past 7 years. While there, he was a Dustin-of-all-trade;, trademark pending.  Not only was he a total computer nerd getting his thrills from drafting homes, but he was also extremely manly working in the field and scheduling subcontractors. His experience has put him in a unique position, to provide customers with everything they could ever need or want.

Also referred to as the side-kick, Jeff graduated from the University of Nebraska at Lincoln after equally geeking out, but for him, it was the ideas that ensured buildings of all shapes, sizes, and materials stand up.  Quality is the name of his game and he's your biggest advocate for making sure every phase of your home build is done to the epitome of structural integrity and quality.  After working with architects for a decade, magically making floating staircases, Jeff can find a structurally possible way to make any idea work - one of his most admired skills is being flexible - never be afraid to say, "Is it possible to..." 

You will never find a better team to build your home. Unless you can hire Bob Vila, I hear he is pretty good too.

If you ask around, there’s a good chance Matt was born with a hammer in one hand and a broom in the other. Growing up in Lincoln’s Kinning Design Build family, he didn’t really need building blocks as a kid… he was already working with the real thing. From sweeping job sites and swinging a hammer to framing, trim work, estimating, sales, and materials procurement, Matt has quite literally grown up in the custom home world.

His experience in residential construction runs deep—deeper than his youthful looks might suggest (which is saying a lot). Having worked in every corner of the business, Matt understands what it takes to move a home from a sketch on paper to keys in hand. He’s worked closely with homeowners from that first “we’re thinking about building” conversation all the way through closing day, keeping projects on schedule, on budget, and (just as important) keeping communication clear and steady along the way.

Matt is known for his calm, solutions-first mindset. When challenges pop up—as they always do in construction—he’s already thinking three steps ahead. That confidence comes from years of hands-on experience and a genuine love for the craft.

He’s also been a leader in the local building community, serving as past president of the Home Builders Association of Lincoln and chairing multiple committees. Outside of work, you’ll find him woodworking, golfing, cheering on the Huskers, or rooting for the Chicago Blackhawks.

At RED Custom Homes, Matt brings pride, craftsmanship, and just the right amount of jobsite humor to every project—helping our clients build homes that are as solid as the reputation he’s built over the years.

If RED Custom Homes runs smoothly (and it does), there’s a very good chance Heather is behind it.

Heather is the organizational backbone of our team — overseeing office management and billing with precision, efficiency, and just the right amount of friendly accountability. She keeps projects moving, invoices accurate, paperwork in order, and the rest of us pointed in the right direction.

With a strong background in administration and financial coordination, Heather brings structure to the fast-moving world of custom home building. She understands that behind every beautiful home is a lot of logistics, and she makes sure none of it slips through the cracks.

• If there’s a spreadsheet involved, she’s already color-coded it.

• If there’s a deadline, she’s already tracking it.

• If something feels chaotic… she’s probably already fixing it.

At RED, we build custom homes with care and creativity. Heather makes sure the foundation behind the scenes is just as solid.
