Meet the dream team
FILTER TEAM BY:
Jerod Mollenhauer
Owner, Director of GSD
Jerod Mollenhauer
Jerod is our frontman, and he rocks. Literally. The dude saw more than 100 bands last year. Since founding Recon in 2019, he has orchestrated us to be one of the fastest-growing companies in the nation. Due in part to his vast experience playing every instrument in our business. From kickstarting marketing and tech start-ups to working at insurance and roofing companies, he knows how the music is made. But what truly strikes a chord with him is empowering others to be the best version of themselves — whether personally or professionally, and we like the sound of that.

Andy Hansen
Meet Andy Hansen, Recon's go-to for all things numbers! When he's not busy balancing the books, he's a dedicated family man who enjoys spending time with his wife and daughter. You can also find him bringing his creativity to life through his passion for 3D printing.

Senior Project Advisor
Derrick Pershall
Derrick loves to have fun with puns and is our resident dad joke extraordinaire. The man is a walking, talking Laffy Taffy wrapper. Originally from the Quad Cities, Derrick now lives in West Des Moines with his daughter Mika and puppy dog Loot. When he isn’t helping customers, you can find him cheering on his Kansas City Chiefs and Hawkeyes. Although he’s quite cheesy, he has one of the most aged Recon tenures and a downright Gouda dude. It’s grate to have him on board.

Project Advisor
Dave Montgomery
Dave is a high-motor go-getter who enjoys kayaking, skiing, hiking, biking, and running. Born and raised on the south side of Des Moines, he currently lives in Norwalk and has more than two decades of experience in the construction industry. Being a guitarist in multiple bands around town, we’re thrilled to have booked him to work at this gig.
