About Thomas Iwema

Like many teens, I started a lawn care service and painting company around the age of 16 in 2011. Upon further growth and success, the company merged with/acquired a similar company operated by a friend about two years later. IKG was formed in March 2014. IKG is now a leader in residential, commercial, and industrial painting contracting. IKG provides national commercial & industrial painting, and residential painting to Chicagoland. We also provide certified mold remediation. I\'m a servant leader striving to excel and innovate, I\'m self-motivated and driven to deliver excellence in daily tasks while overseeing all aspects of IKG. I enjoy serving students by utilizing mentoring programs and providing a platform for me to share my business experiences as an experienced younger business professional.
