										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Justin Thomas started working as an apprentice engineer in 1993, soon after G&amp;D was founded, learning the refrigeration trade under the tutelage of a 40-year veteran. Quickly becoming adept in all areas of the business, Justin was soon diligently fabricating, welding, selling and distributing products across the country. A major part of his success has been his ability to establish strong and honest relationships with his clients, helping them to solve their cooling issues and, even more importantly, supporting them from beginning to end.</p>
<p>When he’s not at the helm of G&amp;D, you can usually find Justin enjoying the great outdoors, fly fishing, backpacking or just spending time with his family. When asked what his greatest accomplishment is, he always says, “Raising my three beautiful daughters.” His family values and business acumen have been and continue to be essential to the success of G&amp;D and our clients.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Andy Backer got his start welding chiller frames back in the nineties and joined G&amp;D Chillers in 2009. As the leader of our sales and marketing team, he is approachable, a great listener and always strives to exceed our client’s expectations. When asked what G&amp;D’s motto, “Committed to Cold,” means, he responded, “To me it means that I work with each customer to supply a system to cover their requirements and sustain their production.”</p>
<p>For Andy, the single most satisfying aspect of his job is the successful completion of a project for a client, which makes coming to work every day a reward. When he isn’t being rewarded in his work, he enjoys spending time out in nature or you also might catch him on the dance floor break dancing. His dream vacation is soaking up the sun in Belize while casting his line fly fishing with a perfectly chilled, craft brew on-hand.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Scott got his Chemical Engineering degree from the University of Texas at Austin and worked in the petrochemical/Oil &amp; gas industry for six years.  During his time as an engineer he was brewing a lot of beer at home and decided that the brewing industry was the place for him.  He moved to Oregon and worked at Falling Sky Brewing for another 6 years, moving from cellar operator up to Production Manager. During his time at Falling Sky, he also attended the Siebel Institute of Brewing Technology receiving his certificate in Brewing Technology. He quit Falling Sky to travel and upon getting back to the states started working for G&amp;D, where he specializes in helping breweries and distilleries size and select chilling systems that help them operate smoothly.</p>
<p>Scott’s teammates describe him as wise, affable and friendly. He’s known for being adventurous rock climbing any chance he gets.</p>
<p>Outside of work, he likes climbing, running and hiking. His dream vacation would be getting dropped off on the Ruth Glacier in Alaska and climb his face off for a month or so.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>John McCoy started working with G&D in 2008 welding frames and learning refrigeration from people who have spent 20+ years in the industry. Working long hours to gain the knowledge needed to progress and grow with the company to now working as the General Manager. </p>
<p>John’s teammates describe him as confident, passionate and incredibly goal oriented. He’s known as a problem solver always finding a way to make it happen. </p>
<p>He enjoys the challenges that pop up on a day to day basis giving him the opportunity to find solutions. He likes the curve balls. The custom design and implementation of new or unique components has always been something he enjoys. Seeing the team come together to take an idea to full blown production is so satisfying. </p>
<p>Aside from work, John has spent his entire life with his dad and grandpa in the mountains learning to hunt, fish and track and trap. Waterfowl hunting has become one of his greatest passions that eats up as much free time and money as he can give. He shares his knowledge of the outdoors with his wife Sydney, and 4-year-old daughter Cecilia. When asked what his greatest accomplishment was, he said “becoming a dad has been the coolest thing I have ever done.” </p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Paul Johnson has been working as G&amp;D’s Chief Engineer since 2006 and has shown his commitment to cold since his first day on the job. “From using quality components and testing everything before it goes out the door, we are all perfectionists,” Paul says. “And when something isn’t right, we make a fix and get it done. That type of reliability as a partner is something I’m proud of at G&amp;D.” For the rest of G&amp;D, we depend on Paul’s passionate pursuit of perfection and laser focus on engineering the best chillers out there to help keep us on the cutting-edge.</p>
<p>In his spare time, Paul likes to be outdoors or playing guitar. His ideal vacation would be getting away from the details spending a month playing it by ear in the Caribbean. When asked who his hero is he says, “George Washington because he was honest and humble.”</p>
