Kalob Creighton, President | CEO

Kalob was born in the tiny town of Potomac, Illinois. He grew up in construction, with several of his family being lifelong members. Growing up around the industry cultivated his love for the business. After graduating high school, he felt the calling to join the military. After his first deployment to the Middle East, Kalob chose to push himself beyond traditional military service. He endured the intense Special Forces Assessment and Selection Course and was selected to attend the Qualification Course. Over a year later, he completed the Qualification Course and earned the Green Beret.

Kalob would go on to serve several deployments around the world in support of US strategic objectives. While serving on active duty, Kalob was able to earn his Associates, Bachelor's, and Master's in Business Administration from Louisiana State University.

After leaving Special Forces, Kalob took his knowledge, experience, drive, and long-time love of construction and applied it to building homes. He connected with a homebuilder in Nashville, who became a good friend and mentor, helping him learn the market and the finer aspects of home building before setting out on his own. He strove to create a team and product that performed above the rest and differentiated themselves by their quality of work. He wanted something that he could pass on to his children one day. He wanted something that they would be proud to carry on.

Kalob is a results-driven performer who strives to set the bar higher in everything he does and achieve second-to-none outcomes. The results of his tireless effort are found in the products of Tier One Construction. The unwavering standards and superior results are where he coined the name for the company. This mindset is the attitude and environment that the company strives to live up to daily. 

In his free time, Kalob loves spending time with his beautiful wife, Emily, and their two fur babies, Nikko and Mila. Emily is a Nurse Practitioner and the rockstar of the household, keeping everything together on the long nights Kalob is running Tier One. Kalob also enjoys spending time outdoors, reading, and learning new things. He is always on the go and enjoys all the activities that Nashville and surrounding areas have to offer.
