Kevin started working on windmills about 25 years ago. He always said that it wasn’t the windmills he relished the most, it was the interesting places he would visit, and the amazing new friends he would make that he enjoyed the most.
Just like when he was a firefighter, Kevin always enjoyed mentoring younger colleagues. He would help teach at the annual New Mexico State University Windmill Technology program each year and promote windmill education everywhere he would visit. The windmill business grew and grew, and soon it became clear that he would need to team up with like-minded friends to support customers across the USA.
Kevin also started posting windmill educational videos under his Texas Windmills Channel on YouTube as time would allow. The videos have had over a half a million views and continued to grow in popularity. What else can I say? He’s one busy guy and a good Dad and Grandfather to boot.
In a surprise to all of us, Kevin admitted that after over 30 years in the fire service plus all those years of climbing windmill towers, he needs to slow down on the physical part of windmills. As 2025 comes to a close, Kevin decided to ask his very good friend and outstanding windmill guy, Todd from Hoosier Windmills, to take on more responsibility.
Kevin and I are so excited that Todd said he would help and continue the Rock Ridge dedication to customer service and windmill education. Even more exciting are our dear Texas friends, Jerry and Mary, as well as Daniel and Yadira will continue to work with Todd to service the Texas area.
Never one to sit around on the couch and watch television, Kevin’s always had to have something to do. As a former airplane pilot, Kevin upgrades his pilot’s license to include a commercial drone certification so he can make more exciting windmill videos.
Kevin and Todd are looking forward to helping answer your windmill questions, so please call or text with any questions.
