Our Company & Staff

Scott began his plumbing experience in 1977.  In addition to working in the family plumbing business and operating his own enterprise, he has over 18 years of Medical Gas experience.  Scott holds a current TSBPE Inspector License plus a Master Plumbing License with Med Gas Endorsement, Multi-purpose Residential Fire Protection Sprinkler Specialist endorsement (MRFPSS), Water Supply Protection Specialist endorsement (WSPS), and carries the following NITC certifications: ASSE 6010 Medical Gas Installer, ASME IX Brazer, ASSE 6030 Medical Gas Verifier, ASSE 6050 Medical Gas Instructor.  Scott is not only an active instructor, he leads our day-to-day operations and is actively involved in the development of our future course offerings.

Mark received his Journeyman Plumbing license in 1979 and now holds a Master Plumbing license with Med Gas endorsement as well as a Backflow Prevention Assembly Tester license issued by TCEQ.  He has taught building trades & plumbing in public schools for 19 years with a Texas Vocational Education Certificate.  Mark’s education includes an Associate’s degree from Howard College and undergraduate studies at Wayland Baptist University.  He has taught TSBPE related courses for over 15 years, including:  Continuing Education, Responsible Master, Apprentice Training, Med Gas Recertification, and exam prep courses.  Mark is also an authorized instructor for OSHA 10 & 30 hour safety training courses.

Matthew was completing the groundwork, rough in and finish of entire apartment buildings before he could drive, but the great Texas heat wave of 1980 convinced him to go to college!  He now holds a Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, a Master’s of Business Administration degree in Executive Leadership, and active CPA licenses in Texas & Georgia.  Matthew has previously served as the Chief Financial Officer of three companies, the Divisional Vice-President of Operations for a publicly traded company, and President of a Financial Services company.  He has served as an Adjunct Professor in the Fred Hale School of Business at East Texas Baptist University in Marshall as well as being the Founder & Chairman of an international missions agency dedicated to leadership development and orphan care.

Chad represents the third generation of the Winn family serving in our company (Scott’s son).  He is a TSBPE licensed plumber with the Med Gas and Multi-purpose Residential Fire Protection Sprinkler Specialist (MRFPSS) endorsements, and originally one of the youngest instructors approved by the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners to teach Plumber’s Professional Continuing Education.  In addition to his plumbing background, he has extensive experience with one of the largest residential service companies in the world. Located in the Dallas/Ft Worth area, Chad primarily serves our clients in North and East Texas.

Lori is a long-time friend of the family, having worked with Matthew over 15 years ago.  She has professional experience in communications, marketing, financial and client services.  She was the original person we had in mind for this role but it took 5 years before everything aligned for that to become a reality.  She is fluent in Spanish and available to take your registration, process your correspondence course, as well as answer your questions or have another staff member do so promptly.  While she was the first full-time member of our staff who is not a Winn, we believe she embodies the same personal commitment to our clients’ success.

Alex joined us in October 2020 (during COVID-19!) to bring additional strength to our back office activities.  He attended Covenant College in Lookout Mountain, GA on a baseball scholarship and received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Business with an Accounting Concentration.  His early experience included financial positions with the Chattanooga Lookouts (TN, minor league) and USA Baseball (NC) before he and his wife settled back in Chattanooga.  He now leads our various programs serving the next generation of industry professionals.
