Kim Burchardt
Kim Burchardt joined O-A-K in 2012 as a member of the accounting department. She holds a double Bachelor’s Degree in Accounting and Finance from Davenport University and brings more than 31 years of construction industry experience.
Why did you choose the construction industry?
While attending college full time and balancing four jobs, I realized I needed a more focused career path. I came across an opportunity with a local excavation company through the Davenport Job Placement Office. What began as a job quickly developed into a long-term career — I became a partner and spent 17 years there before joining O-A-K. Today, I bring more than 31 years of experience in the construction industry.
What is your hidden talent?
I enjoy supporting others and am always willing to step in where needed. In a previous role, I operated a bulldozer for a full day to keep trucks moving and have stepped into field roles when staffing was tight.
What do you do in your free time?
In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my kids and being outdoors — especially near the water. I also like working on crafts and spending time target shooting.
