JARED REDYKE |
Jared has been employed at DYKON since 1989. Prior to this date, he worked at DYKON summers, holidays and weekends for several years. He is a graduate of John Brown University with a degree in Business Management and Construction Management.
His experience in the uses of explosives for demolition include building implosion, smokestacks, bridges, industrial structures and various other applications. Since 1989 Jared has actively participated in the management and implementation of all Dykon’s explosive demolition projects.
Jared began full time employment at Dykon upon his graduation from college. He single handedly managed all the rock drilling and blasting operations for Dykon at that time, as well as his duties for the demolition activities that Dykon was most recognized for.
Jared opened Dykon Blasting Corp in 1996, a separate corporation, to better service Dykon's growing rock drilling and blasting business. Within 4 years, the new rock drilling and blasting corporation grew to service 4 states, and to date, now provides controlled blasting in utility construction, site work, road excavations, and quarries for the entire central region of the United States.
Jared is the sole owner and president of Dykon Blasting Corp. and has seen the company grow to over three times the capacity of the sister company. A complete list of all rock drilling and blasting projects Jared has managed can be seen in the Work History section of our web site.
He is Oklahoma Miner Training Institute trained and certified and holds numerous state and Canadian Blasting Licenses. He is a member of the International Society of Explosive Engineers and National Association of Demolition Contractors. Jared currently sits on the board of directors of the Ozark Chapter of The Society of Explosive Engineers.
