Meet the team

Aaron Rittenhouse, co-founder

Aaron is a graduate of Hope College with a degree in Business Management and Accounting. During his time at Hope, Aaron was chosen to be a member of the exclusive Baker Scholar program, and swam varsity for all four years. After graduating, Aaron spent several years working in logistics as an engineer and supply chain manager before answering the call to entrepreneurship.

Combining his experience renovating and restoring homes with his analytical experience to understand today’s complex and ever-changing real estate market, Aaron is uniquely positioned to help when it’s time for a home renovation project.

When Aaron’s not helping you with your next home renovation, you will most likely find him working on an investment property or woodworking project. He also enjoys spending time with his family. He and his family share a passion for the outdoors and love spending time boating, hiking, biking, and swimming.

andrew rittenhouse, co-founder

Andrew is a graduate of Hillsdale College with a degree in Accounting and a minor in French. After college, Andrew moved to Wisconsin and began a career in accounting and finance. He started as an audit associate in a “Big 4” accounting firm, moved to a financial analyst position in a large multi-national corporation, and finally to a Controller position at an orthopedic equipment company, before founding Rittenhouse Brothers with Aaron.

Andrew still lives in Wisconsin, so you likely won’t see him in person at your next project. However, you can rest easy knowing he is managing the company’s finances and helping to manage the business, so that his brothers can focus on the most important part of our business, our clients.

When Andrew is not working, he enjoys spending time with his wife and two boys, woodworking, boating, hiking, skiing, and playing or watching sports.

Nick Rittenhouse, project manager

Nick graduated from Wittenberg University with a degree in finance, business management, and economics. While at school, Nick was a member of the swim team and part of a number of different organizations enabling him to perfect the art of time-management and organization, a skill he applies on a daily basis in his current role as Project Manager.

After graduating, Nick started out in the retail industry as a district manager, but maintained his craft and love for construction through a number of side projects, including his own house. When the opportunity arose to join hands with his brothers, Nick jumped at the call to fulfill his passion on a full time basis.

Now he’s ready to take on your next project! Regardless of the scale or complexity, Nick comes readily equipped with the skills and problem solving know-how to get the job done and done right. He takes pride in his work and no matter the difficulty, always completes the job the way he would want it done on his own house.

Nick enjoys seeing a job progress from start to finish, so much so that when not on the job you’ll likely find him working on a project of his own. He also enjoys spending time with his family, friends, and wife, Allie. Together they love all things ice cream/popcorn related, exploring new places, playing games, swimming and boating.
