Team | San Francisco

⸻

By 2010, Michael launched the San Francisco office and took things up a notch. Fast forward to today, and Allied is one of the fastest-growing private companies in America — a fact that surprises no one who’s seen Michael on a mission (or on caffeine).

As the fearless leader of Team Allied, Michael is in charge of pointing the ship in the right direction, yelling “let’s go!” a lot, and making sure the culture stays strong, the team stays sharp, and the coffee stays hot.

Team Allied Lives by These Fundamentals:
1. Do what’s best for the customer and deliver legendary service.
2. Find a way and go the extra mile (yes, even when it’s uphill).
3. Speak straight — no corporate mumbo jumbo.
4. Create win-win solutions.
5. Celebrate success and keep things fun (bring donuts).
6. Look ahead, anticipate, and be proactive (aka, don’t wait for the roof to leak).
7. Be process-oriented — but not boring.

Our Mission:
Team Allied is on a mission to make life easier for property managers. Whether you oversee a hotel, school, hospital, church, or government building, if disaster strikes — water, fire, or something else wild — we’ll be there in 60 minutes, 24/7/365, armed with solutions and a can-do attitude. We handle the stress so you don’t have to.

Ramon – Restoration Technician Extraordinaire, Moisture Terminator & Quiet Jobsite Hero
Ramon is the guy who doesn’t say much — because he’s too busy getting things DONE. Whether it’s water damage, fire cleanup, or mold that thinks it’s in charge, Ramon shows up with his gear, his game face, and a quiet confidence that says, “I’ve got this.”
He doesn’t need a spotlight, just a solid plan and a dry pair of boots. Ramon works circles around the chaos — always focused, always efficient, and always five steps ahead of the next problem.
He’s known for:
Getting the job done right the first time

Working faster than his coworkers can drink their coffee

Keeping calm while others are duct-taping things in a panic

Silently judging your mop technique (and then fixing it)

With Team Allied’s core values in his back pocket, Ramon is the dependable, no-drama technician every restoration job needs — because when he’s on the site, the job isn’t just done… it’s done right.
Melissa – Financial Wizard, Budget Tamer & Michael’s Money Muse
Melissa isn’t just Team Allied’s money person — she’s the money whisperer. With a sparkle in her eye and a spreadsheet at the ready, she helps wrangle the numbers, organize the chaos, and keep the company’s financials looking tighter than shrink wrap on a brand-new dehu.
Whether she’s waving her wand over budgets, untangling receipts that look like they’ve survived a flood, or guiding Michael from “random pile of papers” to “flawless monthly report,” Melissa does it all with patience, precision, and the kind of charm only a true money sorceress can pull off.
She’s known for:
Turning financial fog into fiscal clarity

Getting the biz into tip-top financial shape (without using a crystal ball)

Holding Michael accountable with a smile… and a spreadsheet

Making “revenue forecasting” sound almost fun

Melissa brings structure, strategy, and just the right dose of sparkle to everything she touches. If Team Allied’s finances are sharp, clean, and future-ready — you can bet Melissa had a magic wand in that.

Daniel – Chief Estimating Officer, Spreadsheet Surgeon & Decoder of Julia’s Handwritten Hieroglyphics
Daniel is the mastermind behind Team Allied’s clean, clear, and profitable estimates — even when the input looks more like a treasure map than a scope. Armed with a pencil, a calculator, and a sixth sense for “what Julia probably meant,” Daniel turns job site chaos into tidy budgets and winning contracts.
He’s not just our estimator — he’s a budget whisperer, timeline wrangler, and construction fortune teller. Whether it’s a one-room repair or a 7-building restoration plan, Daniel crunches the numbers, smooths the scope, and adds just enough markup to keep things running (and keep Christy smiling).
Daniel’s toolkit includes:
Eagle-eye accuracy

Jedi-level patience

The ability to translate napkin sketches into profit

Lightning-fast turnaround (powered by coffee and polite determination)

Without Daniel, we’d still be arguing over where the water line ends. With him, we’re on time, on budget, and back in business — with style.

Christy – Company Matriarch, Money Maestro & Keeper of the Sanity (and Baby Titus)
Christy is the calm, steady hand behind the Allied curtain — keeping the company on track, the books balanced, and the energy grounded. As Michael’s mom and Team Allied’s unofficial CFO-slash-operations-whisperer, she’s the one who makes sure the numbers work, the lights stay on, and the checks don’t bounce.
Need to know where a file is from 2009? Ask Christy. Trying to figure out payroll, a vendor issue, and how to order more printer ink at the same time? She’s already handled it — and probably made lunch, too.
What Christy does best:
Keeps the business financially healthy (and emotionally stable)

Ensures the team has what they need to succeed — from QuickBooks to comfort

Brings a no-nonsense attitude with just enough kindness to keep everyone human

Balances spreadsheets by day and baby Titus by snack time

She’s more than the glue — she’s the backbone. Team Allied runs smoother because Christy’s in the building (or behind the scenes making magic happen). Just don’t try to sneak a surprise expense past her — she’ll find it before the receipt prints.

Javier – Rising Restoration Star, Moisture Meter Ninja & Future Superhero
Javier is the newest member of Team Allied’s restoration crew — but don’t let the “rookie” title fool you. He’s already racking up experience faster than a dehumidifier fills a bucket. With a natural knack for the trade and a serious hustle, Javier is diving into water, fire, and mold restoration like he was born for it (probably because he was — he’s proudly following in his father’s footsteps).
Javier shows up early, asks the right questions, carries the heavy stuff without being asked, and somehow always has a smile on his face — even when he’s wrangling air movers in a 110-degree attic.
He’s known for:
Always being eager to learn (and never saying “that’s not my job”)

Knowing where the truck keys are before anyone else

Treating every job like it’s a championship game

Having “future lead tech” energy on Day One

Team Allied is proud to have Javier on the squad — not just for the work he does now, but for the restoration legend he’s clearly becoming. Watch this space — he’s just getting started.

Abraham – Lead Technician, Builder of All Things & 24/7 Restoration Superhero
Abraham has been with Team Allied for over five years, but we’re pretty sure he’s been building and fixing things since birth. If it’s broken, he’ll fix it. If it doesn’t exist, he’ll build it. And if there’s an emergency at 2am on a Sunday? Abraham’s already on the way (with tools in hand and probably beating the fire department there).
He’s the guy you want on every job: fast, focused, calm under pressure, and somehow able to make disaster response look smooth. Whether it’s water, fire, mold, or mystery damage — Abraham handles it all with the confidence of someone who’s seen it (and fixed it) before.

Abraham is known for:
Showing up before you even call

Building anything with whatever’s in the truck

Solving problems faster than you can describe them

Being Team Allied’s most dependable “Oh crap” button

He’s not just a technician — he’s a one-man restoration machine with a Jeep in the parking lot, a dirt bike in the trailer, and a heart that runs on coffee, hustle, and doing the job right

Kyle Throckmorton – Technology Leader, Wi-Fi Whisperer & Official Guardian of “Why Isn’t This Working?”
When something beeps, blinks, or randomly stops responding, Kyle is the one we call — and somehow, he always makes it work (usually with a smile and a muttered “classic user error”). As Team Allied’s fearless Technology Leader, Kyle is in charge of making sure the tools we use every day — from cloud systems to field apps — actually do what they’re supposed to do.
He doesn’t just fix things. He streamlines, secures, and strategizes. Whether he’s solving a mystery VPN issue, syncing 14 devices in under 5 minutes, or explaining tech to non-tech people in plain English, Kyle helps the entire company stay connected, compliant, and competitive.

Kyle’s unofficial job titles include:
Digital Plumber (he fixes all our system clogs)

Zoom Room Commander

Chief Cloud Navigator

“The Guy Who Actually Read the Manual”

Kyle keeps Team Allied running smoothly, safely, and smart — and when it comes to meeting our tech objectives, he’s not just part of the team — he’s the infrastructure.

Gilberto – Mold Slayer, Water Warrior & Rodeo-Ready Technician
Gilberto is Team Allied’s triple-threat technician — mold, water, and fire damage don’t stand a chance when he rolls up (usually before you even knew there was a problem). He shows up on-site with his boots laced, gloves on, and a calm confidence that says, “Yeah, I’ve seen worse — and I fixed it.”
When he’s not hauling dehus and wielding extraction hoses like a boss, Gilberto moonlights as a rodeo fan, proving that whether it’s soaking floors or bucking broncos, he’s ready to ride.
Gilberto lives by the Team Allied Core Values every day:
Do what’s best for the customer — no shortcuts, no excuses.

Find a way and go the extra mile (even if it’s uphill, in boots).

Speak straight — he says what he means and gets to work.

Create win-win solutions — unless it’s mold, then it loses.

Celebrate success and keep things fun — even on demo days.

Look ahead, anticipate, be proactive — and always have extra gloves.

Be process-oriented — because drying things right the first time matters.

If Gilberto’s on your job, consider it handled — with horsepower, humor, and the heart of a champion (or at least a cowboy).

Kevin – Equipment Whisperer, Racecar MacGyver & Allied’s Fix-It Legend
Kevin is the guy you call when something’s broken, squeaking, leaking, or smoking — and you need it running again yesterday. As Team Allied’s go-to equipment maintenance and repair technician, Kevin’s been known to fix a generator with nothing but a socket wrench, a Gatorade cap, and a shrug.
When he’s not crawling under a trailer or chasing down that “weird noise,” he’s tuning up racecars in true MacGyver meets NASCAR style. Kevin doesn’t just turn wrenches — he turns chaos into horsepower.
He lives out Team Allied’s core values without even trying:
Do what’s best for the customer – Even if it means fixing something at 6am on a Sunday.

Find a way and go the extra mile – Bonus points if the mile includes hauling a 500lb air scrubber.

Speak straight – Kevin tells it like it is (and usually throws in a joke or two).

Create win-win solutions – Like welding, zip ties, and genius field hacks.

Celebrate success and keep things fun – Especially if it involves a race, a donut (the tire kind or the pastry), and a fist bump.

Look ahead, anticipate, be proactive – He sees equipment problems before they’re problems.

Be process-oriented – But flexible enough to improvise with duct tape if needed.

Kevin’s not just part of Team Allied — he’s a cornerstone of the pit crew that keeps the whole operation rolling. And if you hear the roar of an engine in the distance, chances are, Kevin built it, fixed it, or drove it. Probably all three.

Ty – Sales Manager, Deal Closer & Certified Equipment Wrangler
Ty is the guy who makes it happen. As Team Allied’s fearless Sales Manager, he’s part rainmaker, part MacGyver, and part chaos coordinator. If you’ve got a building emergency, an impossible deadline, or a delivery that involves forklifts, duct tape, and a prayer — Ty’s already on it.
He doesn’t just close deals — he creates opportunities. Armed with a hoodie, a spreadsheet, and a million ideas (some of which even make it past Julia’s approval), Ty brings the energy that keeps Allied growing and clients grinning.
He’s known for:
Turning “let me check” into “done deal”

Finding the right equipment, right now

Pitching wild ideas that somehow work (and are usually awesome)

Being the calm in the storm (unless the coffee runs out)

Ty’s superpower? Making customers feel like they’re the only priority in the world — even when he’s juggling 14 projects and coordinating a delivery with one hand and typing with the other. In short: Ty gets it done.

Jessica – Office Manager Extraordinaire, Chaos Tamer & Smiling Enforcer
Jessica is the glue, gears, and espresso that keep the Team Allied engine running. As Office Manager, she’s the master of multitasking — able to answer phones, organize vendor files, solve a crew scheduling issue, and find a lost invoice… all while sipping iced coffee and maintaining a flawless cat-eye.
She’s known for:
Finding a way, even when there isn’t one

Showing up with a smile, even if it’s Monday

Keeping Julia, Michael, and Kevin in line (not an easy task, but she makes it look effortless)

Need something done fast, done right, and done without drama? Call Jessica. Just don’t mess with her desk system or try to schedule a meeting during her lunch.
At Team Allied, Jessica doesn’t just manage the office — she runs the show behind the scenes, makes the impossible look easy, and somehow still remembers everyone’s birthday. We don’t know how she does it. We’re just glad she does.

Julia – Chaos Coordinator, a.k.a. The Real Boss at Team Allied
Julia is the glue that keeps Team Allied running — and occasionally the duct tape. With a headset in one hand and a highlighter in the other, she somehow manages to juggle schedules, crews, paperwork, and the occasional snack stash emergency without breaking a sweat.
Need to find a lost tool, a missing invoice, or a crew member who “just stepped out for a minute”? Ask Julia — she probably already solved it 15 minutes ago and sent you an email about it.
Her superpowers include:
Turning total chaos into color-coded order

Knowing what you need before you ask

Keeping the coffee pot full and the sarcasm flowing

At Team Allied, Julia doesn’t just support the mission — she is the mission control. And yes, she can probably run this place in her sleep (but she won’t admit it).

Michael – Founder, Leader, and Chief Vision Wrangler
Michael co-founded Allied Restoration Company with his dad back in 2002 — before TikTok, smart homes, or oat milk lattes. They started with one location in Seattle, Washington, a truck, some big ideas, and probably a roll of duct tape.
By 2010, Michael launched the San Francisco office and took things up a notch. Fast forward to today, and Allied is one of the fastest-growing private companies in America — a fact that surprises no one who’s seen Michael on a mission (or on caffeine).
As the fearless leader of Team Allied, Michael is in charge of pointing the ship in the right direction, yelling “let’s go!” a lot, and making sure the culture stays strong, the team stays sharp, and the coffee stays hot.
