Kenneth's business sense and entrepreneurial passion began early - he started his first business at 13 years old selling garden seeds door-to-door. This adventure literally planted the seed that led him to start Texas Rekey Locksmith Service from the trunk of his car in 1995. The company was rebranded as Mr. Rekey Locksmith® Services when it expanded outside of Texas 10 years later.
Seeking out an inventive approach, Kenneth's vision was to provide
reliable residential and commercial locksmith services at a
straightforward all-inclusive price, and focus on rekeying rather
than replacing locks, thereby saving the customer time and money.
Kenneth revolutionized and transformed an industry that was
previously known for inconsistencies by creating a reputable brand
identity and multiple opportunities for market growth to its
franchisees.
Today, Kenneth is a hands-on CEO, leading a unique culture of
locksmith professionals who are easily recognizable by their clean,
uniformed and branded appearance. He wears many hats at the
company, one of which is franchise owner and also franchisee to
over 20 Mr. Rekey territories. Based on his extensive, real-world
operations and growth, Kenneth is able to provide franchisees a
comprehensive business platform that includes everything from
back-office operations, marketing methodology, company certified
training, a proven support team, and industry specific tools and
equipment.
During the last 35 years, Kenneth has founded more than 40
businesses and spent time studying the success of other business
leaders in thriving industries and applying them to his own
business ventures. He also mentors numerous entrepreneurs in his
hometown of Austin, Texas.
Kenneth has two children who both play an active role in his organizations. He enjoys traveling with his wife Vicki and playing tennis.
