We’ve grown out of necessity—but not out of touch.

Inherent Commercial was built by a small group of people who care deeply about the work, the people we work with, and the clients who place their trust in us. That hasn’t changed.

Our vision remains steady: to never outgrow the smaller jobs that keep us grounded and build lasting trust. Whether it’s a multi-phase development or a modest tenant improvement, we approach each project with the same level of care and commitment.

Even as our team grows, we work hard to remove barriers—not create them. We stay accessible, communicative, and focused on simplifying what can often be a complex process.

Because construction isn’t easy. But it should feel easier when we’re on your team.

ADAM FERRELL
Q

ADAM FERRELL

Adam brings a steady blend of discipline, leadership, and genuine care to every project he supports. A southside Indianapolis native and Center Grove graduate, he went on to earn his bachelor’s degree from Liberty University and a master’s degree from Christian Theological Seminary.

Before stepping into construction, Adam spent several years in local church ministry. That work shaped his passion for making a tangible difference in people’s lives and strengthened his commitment to continual growth as a leader. Today he lives in Bargersville with his middle-school sweetheart, now his wife, and their three children.

Adam’s construction experience includes high-volume residential work, where he spent four and a half years as a Construction Manager overseeing the development of multiple communities. One of his favorite projects was a neighborhood built in the heart of Center Grove, especially meaningful since it sits in the area where he grew up. His most personal project was the renovation of his second home, a hands-on effort he and his wife completed together with help from family.

Outside the field, Adam enjoys lifting weights, reading, date nights with his wife, and home projects. Much of his free time is spent with family, whether playing with his kids, relaxing by the pool, or closing out the evening with a good movie or show. He leads worship at his church, makes frequent Menards runs, and according to his wife, has a “snobby” streak when it comes to clothes, hats, and yard care.

A fan of simple staples like pizza or a cheeseburger and fries, Adam also loves learning. He regularly digs into the Bible, reads books on personal growth and spiritual development, and listens to fitness-focused podcasts. If he weren’t in construction, he’d likely be coaching others in the gym.

Whether he is coordinating trades, solving challenges in the field, or investing in his family at home, Adam brings the same values-driven approach, attention to detail, and pursuit of excellence. These qualities make him a strong asset to the Inherent Commercial team and to the clients we serve across Central Indiana.

AUSTIN GASSAWAY
Q

AUSTIN GASSAWAY

Austin Gassaway grew up in Columbus, Indiana, where his passion for construction took root early. After graduating from Columbus North High School, he served four years in the United States Marine Corps—an experience that shaped his discipline, leadership, and problem-solving skills on and off the jobsite.

Austin has been involved in the building trades since he was 14, gaining hands-on experience in residential construction, custom dock building, and union commercial work. His first major project—a three-story home built during high school—ignited his appreciation for the entire lifecycle of a project. From framing and finish work to mechanical coordination and final punch, he learned what made each trade unique and discovered a genuine passion for building environments that people rely on every day. Since then, Austin has worked on a wide range of projects, including the Marion County Jail and several residential community builds. He enjoys the technical challenge of coordinating crews, maintaining quality, and keeping projects moving efficiently.

Whether he’s working through details in the field or helping solve problems before they become issues, Austin thrives on the fast-paced, hands-on nature of construction.

Austin lives in Taylorsville with his fiancée and their three dogs—a boxer, cattle dog, and lab. Outside of work, he enjoys hunting, fishing, smoking anything he can fit on the grill, and spending time with his family. His favorite meal is a filet mignon with mashed potatoes and green beans, and his go-to restaurant is Condado’s Tacos. A Jason Aldean concert tops his list of favorites.

If he weren’t in the superintendent role, Austin would still be in the trades—as a carpenter—continuing the craft he’s loved since he was a kid.

Originally from Le Mars, Iowa, and later Marshall, Minnesota, Collin started mowing lawns at age 11 and turned it into a small landscaping business by high school. After graduating from Marshall High School, he went on to earn a degree from Iowa State University and kicked off his professional construction journey as a Project Engineer at TWG.

Collin’s career has taken him across the country—working on projects in Iowa, Indiana, Wisconsin, Missouri, Arizona, Colorado, Washington, and Louisiana—but now he calls Cumberland, Indiana home. He shares his life with his partner Taylor and their black Lab, Cash (affectionately nicknamed “The Man in Black”). They’re currently renovating their home and building a 34’x36’ barn in their backyard—just another project on Collin’s ever-growing list.

Grounded, driven, and deeply committed to building things that matter, Collin believes he’s doing exactly what he was meant to do—helping people grow through challenge and change.

BRAYTON UNDERHILL
Q

BRAYTON UNDERHILL

Growing up on the southwest side of Indianapolis, IN, where I became an avid golfer. After high school, I attended Ball State University, setting the foundation for my career in construction. I’m grateful to have worked on some impressive projects, like the Weld County Jail 2 West Expansion in Greeley, Colorado—a 130,000 sq ft addition that added 381 beds, including a 15 cell “close-watch” pod, and a master control center.

I now live in Avon, IN, with my wife, Jenna, who I’m lucky enough to call my high school sweetheart, our beautiful daughter, Calla, and our two dogs, Louie (a Weimaraner) and Pippa (a Goldendoodle). In my free time, you can find me golfing, running, traveling, or spending time with family and friends.

I’m a big fan of crab legs and can’t resist a meal at Ohana Brazilian Steakhouse at Disney World. One of my favorite memories is taking my daughter Calla to Myrtle Beach for her first experience in the ocean. My wife Jenna and I also share a love for music, with standout memories like a 4-day country festival in Fruita, Colorado’s mountains. Currently, I’m reading The Power of Negative Thinking by Bob Knight, but Shoe Dog by Phil Knight remains an all-time favorite.

I also have a love for cooking outside over a fire or creating a makeshift smoker to enjoy the rich flavors of wood smoke.

I have been in the construction world for over 35 years and can honestly say I have a real passion for our projects. Seeing a project from conception to reality is something special. I have worked on many multi-site, multi-family projects throughout the mid-west and for many years have been building assisted living facilities throughout the Indy area, while also building a few churches along the way. I enjoy being a mentor and have had the opportunity to officially and unofficially mentor high school and college students as well as young adults through education and employment.  One goal I have on every project is to build a lasting relationship, not only with the client, but also with the subcontractors. The result is usually a repeat client and subcontractors that will pick Inherent over our competitors. I am currently a Senior Superintendent.

IAN BROWN
Q

IAN BROWN

I am a native of Iowa and Nebraska (hence the 402 area code on my phone and the Husker sticker on my vehicle) but have lived in Brownsburg for over 10 years now. I have two children (Cameryn and Crew) in the Brownsburg school system and am a total sports dad – most weekends involve some sort of teen and youth sporting event. I do try to get some fishing in when not at the gym/park/football field. Nothing better than getting outside for some walleye and smallmouths.

Pre-construction management is a new venture for me after 30 years of higher education and I am excited about it. I coached college basketball for 20 years including 10 years as the head coach at my Alma Mater Doane University before moving to Indiana and teaching/coaching at Roncalli High School. While at Roncalli, my summer months were filled working for AFV Electrical which does give me some perspective on how construction projects are handled as well as a short stint in the commercial roofing industry as an inspector.

JIM HADLEY
Q

JIM HADLEY

I was raised in Anderson, Indiana, and after graduating from Anderson High School, I joined the US Navy. I was stationed on the USS Constellation aircraft carrier in San Diego, where my job was fire and rescue on the flight deck. During my Westpac deployment, I visited many countries around the globe, and midway through the tour, our fleet was diverted to the Gulf to assist in Desert Storm/ the Gulf War.

When I returned home from active duty, I jumped right into construction, a field that has always interested me since I was younger. I was that “shop class” kid in school. Initially, I started by framing custom homes. After framing, I was given an opportunity in residential remodeling. I really enjoyed remodeling historic homes in downtown Indy and throughout the city for over 20 years.

In 2016, I obtained my associate’s degree in HVAC. After graduating, I worked as a residential/commercial technician for six years. I was then given an opportunity in commercial management, and I have truly enjoyed learning about this side of the construction industry.

I reside in Pendleton with my wife, three kids, and two lazy cats. I enjoy sitting by an early morning campfire with a cup of Black Rifle Coffee. One of my most enjoyable hobbies is fishing, but not your everyday fishing. I crave ice fishing when the colder weather rolls around. Those are some of the best fishing memories my son and I have made, and I hope we continue to make many more. Going on beach vacations with my family over the years has been awesome, especially because of the saltwater fishing opportunities. I enjoy spending as much time as possible with my young adult children before they grow up and move out. I also like listening to good music while enjoying a nice cigar at the end of the day!

JOEY WILLIAMS
Q

JOEY WILLIAMS

With a background that spans both custom homebuilding and high-profile commercial work, Joey Williams brings precision, grit, and a competitive edge to his role as a Superintendent at Inherent Commercial. Over the past eight years, Joey has built everything from high-end custom homes—including a personal favorite in Chatham Hills—to estimating large-scale renovations at legendary sites like Notre Dame Stadium. Whether he’s managing budgets, bidding work, or collaborating with design teams, Joey thrives on getting the details right from day one.

Born and raised in Brownsburg, Indiana, Joey is a graduate of Brownsburg High School and studied at IUPUI. He got his start as a Concrete laborer—an early intro to hands on field work in fast-paced environments. That same mindset now guides his approach to construction: stay humble, stay focused, and always deliver more than expected.

Joey lives in Noblesville with his wife of 10 years, Angie, and their four kids. When he’s not building at work, he’s coaching youth baseball and softball, golfing with his wife and son, or grilling out with the family. He’s a firm believer in the motto “Look good, feel good, play good”—and yes, he’s a little snobby about it. From generic brands to subpar materials, if it’s not the best, it’s not for him.

Joey is all-in on every project, passionate about pushing for quality, and laser-focused on building things that last. To him, construction is more than a career—it’s about creating spaces where people live, gather, and make memories.

JOSHUA HINDSLEY
Q

JOSHUA HINDSLEY

Born and raised in Union City, Indiana, Joshua Hindsley’s passion for hard work and hands-on projects began with his first job cleaning stalls, baling hay, and training horses. This early experience sparked a lifelong love for horseback riding and showing.

With over twenty years of carpentry experience, Joshua brings a deep well of expertise to his role as Trades Manager at Inherent Commercial. Before joining Inherent, he owned and managed his own home renovation company, where one of his favorite projects was rebuilding his family’s last house and barn. This 100-year-old farmhouse was gutted and meticulously restored by Joshua and his wife, with minimal outside help—a project he takes great pride in. For Joshua, it stands out as a true career highlight. If he weren’t in his current role, you’d likely find him training and showing horses, his other great passion.

Outside of work, Joshua enjoys camping and trail riding with his family, tackling home improvement projects, and spending quality time with his two energetic boys. He currently resides in Alexandria, Indiana, with his wife, who he describes as “the best.” While Joshua has a love for Chevy trucks (despite currently driving a Ford), he’s also particular about his preference for red tractors—firmly in the Case IH camp over John Deere.

A fun fact that surprises many is that Joshua raised and rehabbed baby raccoons growing up. At home, he’s surrounded by animals, including three dogs (though he admits to claiming only two), a cat, and five horses. He’s also still working on convincing his wife to let him add a hedgehog to the mix.

When he’s not building, he can often be found with his sons at their sporting events, fishing or really anything outdoors.

A self-described thrill-seeker, Justin has conquered the sky in an open cockpit biplane, scaled the Black Hills, and even faced down multiple grizzly bears on an Alaskan adventure. His love for exploration extends beyond the wild, as he and his family have visited 30 national parks, collecting stamps along the way.

With a passion for crafting, Justin takes pride in his work. His favorite project to date is a stunning Lake Michigan home built during the challenging COVID-19 era. The home’s breathtaking views and the owners’ continued delight serve as a testament to his skill and dedication.

Selling T-shirts on the beach with her toes in the sand. She’s also a proud dog mom to a Shih Tzu named June, and she once found herself unexpectedly co-piloting a 10-person plane between St. John and St. Croix. (No pilot license—just nerves of steel.)

Over the years, he has worked with both homebuilders and commercial contractors, gaining a broad range of hands-on experience across the industry.

TRIPP WALKER

Tripp Walker brings a sharp analytical mind, deep curiosity, and a calm, steady presence to his role as Preconstruction Manager at Inherent Commercial. With a background in both field and office roles—and a résumé that includes notable multifamily projects across the country—Tripp excels at turning complex ideas into clear budgets, reliable timelines, and successful bids. One of his favorite builds to date was The Axis Apartments in downtown Indianapolis, where he cut his teeth as an Assistant Superintendent on a major mixed-use development. The scale and complexity hooked him—and the rest is history.

Tripp grew up in New Castle, Indiana, where he still lives today with his wife and their four children. A proud graduate of New Castle Chrysler High School (“home of the largest and finest fieldhouse in the world”), he went on to earn a degree in Biology and Biochemistry from IU East—though these days, he’s far more likely to be building apartment budgets than running lab reports.

He got his first taste of hard work running his own lawn care business at 16. This early experience shaped the grit and determination he brings to every project. Over the years, Tripp has contributed to work at Flaherty & Collins, TWG, and T&H, participating in a range of luxury, LIHTC and market-rate projects in places like Atlanta, Oklahoma City, Raleigh, Rochester, and across Indiana.

Off the clock, Tripp enjoys hiking, camping, fishing, and shooting sports. He’s also a motorcycle enthusiast and enjoyed the twisty roads on his beloved Triumph Sprint. At home he shares a life with his pup Benny, the cat Karma, and a full house of family chaos.

Whether he’s creating a conceptual budget, collaborating on early design, or strategizing contractor selections, Tripp brings humility, humor, and rock-solid reliability to every step of the process.

ZAK BATT

I was born and raised on the east side of Indianapolis and currently reside in Westfield. Thanks to my parents’ incredible generosity, I graduated from Cathedral High School and went on to work in the restaurant industry. I worked as a server and bartender for multiple years and found enjoyment in the daily person-to-person interactions. After the pandemic took hold, I changed careers and started working for a commercial roofing company as a technician. Once again, I found fulfillment which turned into a passion for human interaction and helping others. Now I’m lucky enough to find myself as an Assistant Project Manager here at Inherent, where I’m hoping to learn the ins and outs of the construction industry with my incredibly knowledgeable coworkers and peers.

In my free time, I try to find opportunities to relax with friends. I enjoy watching football, going to local breweries, and hanging out anywhere I can find a good conversation and a great plate of food.
