ABOUT US | Inherent Commercial

Our team is a small group of people who like to build buildings and take care of their clients, project partners, and subcontractor relationships.

Our vision is to never outgrow the smaller jobs that keep us humble and earn someone’s trust. We keep our team small so we don’t create barriers and each one of us is as accessible to you as possible. The construction process is not simple. However, our job is to simplify it for you.

OUR PARTNERS

GREG LOONEY

Construction has been a passion of mine since I was a little kid. I always enjoyed seeing construction equipment, jobsites, and building things with my hands. I was born and raised in Indianapolis and obtained a Building Construction Management degree from Purdue University – West Lafayette (2009). I have a very supportive and loving wife, Amanda, and two rambunctious boys, Beckham (4) and Bodie (2). Although we do not have much spare time right now, we always enjoy live music (especially Dave Matthews Band) and I enjoy the hunt for hard to find bourbon.

I lead the day to day operations for the company with a focus on client satisfaction, strategic direction, and creating a cohesive team. We can only be as strong as our weakest link, so one of the most crucial aspects of the business is that we all support one another. On each job, we strive to exceed our clients’ expectations, communicate honestly, and support each other, so we will ultimately succeed.

In addition to work and family, I am passionate about helping youth not only excel in life but also in the field of construction. I am involved with the Providence Christo Rey corporate work study program as well as a repetitive volunteer/sponsor of the Russell’s Building Camp pop up sessions.

JOE ESSELBORN

I was born and raised in Indianapolis and graduated from Purdue University with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Building Construction Management (BCM). Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, trying a new restaurant with my wife, and drinking a good bourbon or local beer with friends and family.

I joined the Inherent Commercial team in 2017 as a Project Manager. My main responsibility is to oversee a construction project from the pre-construction phase to the point at which we turn over the keys. This ensures client satisfaction, on-time delivery, and keep the project within budget.

BETSY SULLIVAN

I was born and raised in Indy, graduated from IU, lived in San Diego for 8 years and moved back to Indy in 2018. My favorite place to be is up at Lake Michigan with family and friends. We’re an outdoor family so whether it is 30 degrees or 90 degrees outside, my husband, four kiddos, and I are hanging in our front yard, building bonfires when it’s chilly, or walking to our favorite corner shops at 56^th and Illinois.

I lead the Business Development & Marketing initiatives for Inherent Commercial. In this role, my 14 years of sales and marketing experience allows me to fuse my three favorite things, the commercial real estate industry, building relationships and tooting the Indy/Indiana horn.

LYNDSY CAIN

I am a wife and mother of three. As a family, we love camping and playing board games. I enjoy jogging and reading as well. I also have a 20+ year passion for teaching people how to swim and I teach all ages from infants to adults.

I was introduced to the Construction Industry while attending Massage Therapy school. After graduating, I took on an administrative roll for a General Contractor which has transpired into a 19-year career. I have assisted teams of all sizes in Estimating, Project Management, and Accounts Payable.

AMANDA LOONEY

I graduated with a Bachelors degree from Purdue University with a major in accounting. Although I am a Boilermaker at heart, I received my Master’s in Accounting from IU, and then spent a decade working in public accounting. In late 2021, I decided to change gears and join my husband Greg on the Inherent team to head up the accounting in house. It has been refreshing to jump in and start learning the nuances in the construction industry as I take on new challenges from the internal side of the business.

When I am not working, I am usually spending lots of time with my husband Greg and our two boys, Beckham and Bodie. At ages 5 and 3, they keep us always laughing and on our toes. I enjoy reading and long walks through Target alone when the opportunity presents.

TONY SPAGNUOLO

I grew up in Brownsburg, attended Brownsburg High School, and have lived here most of my life. On the weekends, you can find me spending time with family and friends. I have been married for 15 years and have two boys, ages 10 and 13. These past few years have been spent at kids’ sporting events with our baseball family. We enjoy traveling to games, exploring cities, and drinking a few beers with this group of friends!

I have worked in the commercial tenant improvement space the last 10 years as a superintendent and currently as a project manager. From subcontractors and property managers to construction managers and tenants, I enjoy building relationships and appreciate the friendships I have made along the way. It is always a fun feeling to complete a project, see the end result, and know how many people worked hard to make it happen!

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.

PAUL LOONEY

I was born in Beech Grove, IN and am affectionately known as a “Grover”. My wife Rosie and I graduated from Roncalli High School and were married in 1980. We have three grown children who are all married. We are blessed with seven grandchildren and love being with them as much as possible. Since 2012 I have enjoyed volunteering at Riley Children’s Hospital in the NICU holding babies, and assisting people who are lost on the campus (Volunteer Impact Program). I also spend my free time doing family genealogy.

My background in construction comes from a utility company. I spent 40 years at AT&T performing and supporting many of the network construction builds with fiber optics, underground, and pole builds. I have a good knowledge of construction and am learning more each day.

BRADLEY RASMUS

I grew up in the small circus city of Peru, Indiana where I currently reside on the outskirts of with my wife and two daughters. Life is quite busy with little ones but in our free time we enjoy hanging out together with family, spontaneous weekend trips to different attractions and vacations!

I joined the Inherent Commercial Team as a Superintendent spring of 2021 and have been in the construction field for 10 years now. I’ve been a part of many unique and personal projects through the years from simple tenant remodels, custom homes and ground-up facilities. There’s truly not a greater accomplishment as a superintendent than the day when city officials and municipalities leave the site for the last time and you’re able to deliver a quality building and keys over to an eager owner for occupancy!

RICK HART

I was born and raised in Indianapolis, Indiana and I am a proud alumnus of Broad Ripple High School. I continued my education by graduating and receiving my Journeymen card in Carpentry from the Associated Builders and Contractors Association. My loving and supportive wife Kendra and I are recent empty-nesters after raising four children. We love spending time watching sports, movies, listening to music and spending time with friends. I am also a drummer, and I am currently on hiatus as a high school basketball coach.

Construction provides the perfect career formula for me. I have always loved building projects from the ground up, developing the project, and seeing people happy with the outcome. I am a superintendent for Inherent. I execute the blueprints and oversee the subcontractors in the field to ensure the end result is customer-worthy.

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.

JEREMIAH KURTZ

I was born in Alexandria, Virginia. I’m 18 years old and I hope to attend college to study psychology and become either a therapist or psychiatrist.

I enjoy playing games and I also love sports. I interned at Inherent Commercial for the 2021-2022 school year and am back again for the 2022-2023 school year.

DEREK KIRKMAN

I was born in Indy, raised in Danville, IN. In 2009, I joined the United States Army and shipped out to Korea. I lived and served all over the US for the following 8 years of my Army duty.

In 2017, I began working in the commercial construction industry. My background is mainly in steel production, commercial roofing and construction management.

I have a passion for Christian ministry and my church home is located in Carmel, IN. It's just me and my dog Remington. However, I look forward to being blessed with having a family of my own someday.

JUSTIN BARNHART

I have lived in central Indiana all my life but my passion is traveling all over to the different National Parks. I am married with two boys. We love fishing, hiking, rock-climbing, white-water rafting, mountain biking and anything that involves a trip on a float plane to get there.

I have been in the construction trade for 25 years I spent the last 5 years working on my own. I enjoy seeing a project from the groundbreaking to when it's ready to move in. Its great working with clients and building a relationship throughout the building process that lasts for years to come. Repeat clients are the goal.

GENE ALEXANDER

I was born and raised in Chicago IL, GO BEARS!! I have 3 little ones, Chloe 7, Miles 5, and Wade 3. My wife and I have been together since 2008. We lived in Las Vegas from 2008 until we moved back to Illinois in December of 2018. We then moved to Avon IN in 2019.

I have been in the construction industry for 15 years; my experience is a wide range from very high end residential to commercial. I have worked in a variety of facilities from 41 story high rise condo towers, high rise hotels, retail spaces, restaurants, office spaces, schools and just about anything in between. I enjoy construction for a multitude of reasons but mostly I enjoy the problem solving, the constant learning and meeting new people from all over the country and world.

TONY MANN

I was born and raised in Cloverdale, where I currently live with my wife and 3 children. I grew up in a farming family. We raised crops on over 10,000 acres and had swine operation with over 1,000 sows….it kept me very busy through my teenage years. My hobbies currently include cooking and smoking meats, as well as weightlifting and drinking coffee. My wife and I love travelling and spending time in the coastal North/South Carolina regions. Our dream is to one day move to the Charleston area and eat Low Country cuisine for the rest of our days.

I attended Vincennes University for my formal education. I started out in Ag Business and quickly figured out that it wasn’t for me. I switched to Construction Technology and quickly felt right at home. After college, I worked for a couple small residential companies as a carpenter before finding my way into commercial construction. I was given the chance to come aboard as a field engineer for a local developer/general contractor in Indianapolis. After 3 years, I was promoted to superintendent. I started out building Hilton brand hotels, including Hampton Inn and Home 2 Suites and then moving into multi-family, with a few small office buildings and TI jobs in between.
