👷‍♂️ Team Spotlight: Kyle Kowalski | VP of Operations

At Turnkey Contracting by Gillan, the work we’re proudest of starts with the people behind it and Kyle Kowalski is a big part of that story.

As Vice President of Operations, Kyle plays a critical role in keeping projects moving forward. His experience has been built from the field up, giving him a deep, practical understanding of what it takes to plan, manage, and execute construction projects successfully.

Kyle brings a strong background in contracting, including prior experience specializing in agricultural and commercial building projects. His career has spanned hands‑on field work, supervision, and project management, allowing him to bring a well‑rounded perspective to every project Turnkey takes on.

He approaches his role with a steady, thoughtful mindset and a strong sense of responsibility—focusing on clear communication, sound judgment, and doing things the right way from start to finish.

Kyle holds a Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management from Western Illinois University, pairing formal education with real‑world experience that directly benefits our clients and our work.

“Kyle has been someone Jeff and I trust deeply—not just to run projects, but to represent who we are as a company,” says Liza Gillan, President of Turnkey Contracting by Gillan, LLC. “His ability to develop relationships and his leadership has allowed Turnkey to grow in ways that feel intentional and true to our values.”

We are so proud to have Kyle on the Turnkey team and look forward to continuing to share the people behind our work.
