The Empire
From chainsaw to conglomerate. A corporate history in the present tense, because the subject refuses to plan for a future he hasn’t already claimed.
Dewey Brothers Logging
Founded, owned, and operated by Kai Dewey. The company fells, hauls, and clears Southeast Idaho timber faster than the forest can file a complaint.

Road Construction Conglomerate
“One day I want to own a big road construction company,” reads the founding memo, drafted on a napkin (preserved, framed in spirit). Phase: napkin. Feasibility study cites “love of money” and “love of running my own business.”
Pilot Certification Program

A house, purchased within the year. Terms flexible; timeline not. The Office notes this is the most conservative item on this page and therefore the one to watch. Tracker status: PENDING
