Daniel J. Krause is well-acquainted with the construction industry.
From a very young age, Dan worked alongside his father, Warren Krause,
as he built several homes throughout the 70’s and 80’s. Dan was
exposed to the building trades while cleaning job sites and shadowing
his father, and eventually began to show interest in the electrical
trade and estimating. This season would later prove to be foundational
for Dan.
As Dan grew older, he began his electrical apprenticeship, obtained
his journeyman status and then proceeded to pursue his passion for
building as a contractor by founding Krause Construction in 1984.
Through the years Dan’s persistence as a contractor allowed him the
opportunity to expand his work and business. The expansion led to
working with hospitals and healthcare agencies and working with
commercial as well as residential custom built homes. Dan’s experience
and tenacity within the construction industry has provided many
different experiences and opportunities. Among them is his dedication
to serving as chairman of the board for The Blue Island Healthcare Foundation.
