John A Miller brings over 30 years of construction experience to the Rivel Insulation team.
At an early age John learned the value of working hard from his father and grandfather while he worked on the family’s Farm & Trucking company. While always having a passion for building things he was drawn to the building trades and graduated in 1989 from the Penta Career Center’s Construction Trades Program. Hard work again paid off and he graduated at the top of his class earning the “Paul Harpster Memorial Reward”.
John is always one to think ahead and is not afraid of hard work, after careful consideration he decided to expand his knowledge and enter the commercial and industrial side of construction. In 1993 he joined the Northwest Ohio Construction Center’s 5 year apprenticeship program. Graduating in 1998, his hard work once again paid off and he worked his way thru the ranks to achieve Construction Manager, Construction Superintendent and Major Projects Manager Roles. These positions also included not only the Insulation trades industry, but within the projects also included scaffold building, paintings, coatings, and abatement/ hazardous materials remediation.
In his management roles John understood the importance of skilled Insulators, Painters and Allied workers and spent many years participating in Apprenticeship Committees as a labor management appointee. John sat on both labor management committees as well as the Master Insulators Association for over 20 years and was the past chairman of the Northwest Ohio Construction Education Center.
John lives in Northwest Ohio with his wife. When he is not working you will find him spending time with his family, attending tractor pulling events, enjoying his Farmall Tractor Collection, or attending an auction to pick up his latest restoration project.
