Mike Drumright grew up in Valley Center, Kansas, a small bedroom community northwest of Wichita. He attended Valley Center schools, played baseball and attended Wichita State University on a baseball scholarship. Mike graduated with a BS in Liberal Arts, but followed his love for baseball playing professional ball for nine years. He played for Detroit, Florida, Boston, and Baltimore.

Upon retiring from his professional baseball career and returning to Wichita, he invested with a contractor to have a duplex project built. Mike realized that the project was not going too well and had to take over the job. He learned many invaluable lessons from his first business venture, mostly from the side of the homeowner. He also realized that he enjoyed construction and decided start a home building business based on honesty, respect, and doing right by the customer.

After running his own home building business for several years, Mike had the opportunity to combine resources and experience with a local residential builder, Wink Hartman. Having been in residential construction for 10 years, Wink was looking to get out of the residential side and concentrate his experience solely on commercial building. The timing was right and INK-drumright builders LLC became reality. Mike is the sole owner of INK-drumright, while Wink serves as an experienced coach and mentor.

INK-drumright builders LLC is currently building in east Wichita, Valley Center, and Derby. Watercress will be a uniquely beautiful neighborhood and Mike is extremely proud to be a part of the excitement. Mike is a member of the Wichita Area Builders Association.

He is married to Robyn and is the proud father of two beautiful daughters, Delaney and Aubrey.

Randy Ketzner started his building career early in life and firmly believes in a strong team effort to get the job done. Randy and his staff strive to make building a home not only a good experience but a great experience by keeping communications very open between client and builder, staying on schedule, and controlling budgets. With more than three decades of experience, “We know you will not have just a house, it will be a home.”

Hands-on is Randy’s approach to building. He is completely involved from start to finish and doesn’t hesitate to let all his clients know it takes a lot of teamwork to complete the job in a timely manner. That teamwork includes two different support groups – his direct support staff, and his indirect support staff which is a large group of subcontractors.  Randy and his staff believe that building on honest, mutually – trusting relationship with each client is as important as building the home itself. A wholly hands-on builder with an unwavering demand for excellence, Randy brings a wealth of experience to his business.
