Marc Ahrens is a leading sales representative in the cast stone industry, specializing in residential construction.
Marc was born in Wichita KS. and lived in various parts of the U.S. until high school. He went to high school overseas in Papua New Guinea and graduated from Ukarumpa High School in 1985. From there he went to a year of Bible School in B.C. Canada, and then made the move to the great state of Texas. Once in Texas, he attended University of Texas at Arlington and graduated in 1995 with a Bachelor of Science in Architecture.
During his college years, Marc worked for UPS part time and later as a full time driver. During the summers, to help pay for school, he also worked for a local mason on his brick crew. After graduation it was Marc’s desire to put his college education to work, so he went to work for a local homebuilder as a construction superintendent, and designed homes in his spare time. Marc was married to Stephanie in 1998 and has two children, whom he adores. He started out building homes for first time homebuyers, and eventually worked his way into the luxury custom home market. It was there that he first met Sam Shipley, the owner of American Masonry Supply. Through the working relationship developed by Marc and Sam, a mutual respect was formed. Eventually Marc came to work for American Masonry Supply in Sept. of 2002.
"I love helping my clients see their dream come to reality."
Marc has been at his current position as a Sales Representative for American Masonry Supply ever since he was hired by Sam Shipley in 2002. He oversees every aspect of a customer’s orders, from the initial bid to the final payment. There are many times that Marc gets to use his Architectural design skills and extensive construction background to help a customer get the exact look and feel they are looking for. A custom home should reflect the personality or desire of the new homeowner. Marc takes the time to make sure each person gets exactly what they want. He works hand in hand with Architects, Builders and homeowners alike to ensure that the finished product is what the architect and homeowner want, can be built, and still have the desired finished look.
