Wonderful story about our CEO Steve Martens and how his passion for business was sparked by his time as a student at The University of Kansas. As a proud Lifetime Member of the KU Alumni Association, Steve is grateful for KU’s innovative partnerships with business and healthcare entities across Kansas. A big shout-out to KUAA staff for writing this feature about Steve in the most recent KU Magazine.

As his companies celebrate 75 years, Steve Martens credits KU for his education and the opportunities to build solid business relationships.

We are pleased to share that our own, Chris Huffman P.E., was asked to participate in the 6th International Symposium on Highway Geometric Design. The conference was held in Amsterdam from June 26th-June 29th.

Chris is one of our state certified appraisers, and he is also a professional engineer with expertise in transportation engineering. He has over 29 years experience with the Kansas Department of Transportation and over 20 years experience working with the Transportation Research Board.

At the conference in Amsterdam, Chris, along with two other colleagues, lead and presented a workshop, Access Management, to illustrate how connection management is combined into transportation and land-use through various lenses: safety, mobility, economy, and livability. He shared a variety of metrics to show how poor connection management can have negative public impacts and also educated the attendees regarding the best practices on a global scale.

Not only did he present this very informative workshop, he also presented a paper on The Demand Side of the Equation: Understanding the Resistance to Access Management Application in the Real World.

The Martens Companies is thrilled that Chris had this opportunity to share his knowledge with others, and we are extremely lucky and proud to have Chris Huffman P.E. as part of our team.

General Manager Rusa Zubiashvili of our Hospitality Management LLC's Best Western Plus Norman property received her U.S. citizenship last month. We are so thrilled for Rusa and are very grateful to have her on our hospitality team!

Rusa was born in the Republic of Georgia. War forced her and her family to leave for the UK in 2008, and in 2013 Rusa and her three children moved to the U.S. In 2016, she joined the BWP Norman as Housekeeping Supervisor and she is now GM!

"I cannot thank this country enough for welcoming me and my kids and thank you to every single person who supported us from the day of our arrival in the U.S...I am grateful for being part of the Martens Companies and will always do my best to bring success for this company."

Congratulations, Rusa!

We had a company lunch today to celebrate Cody Foster passing his state exam! He is now officially a licensed appraiser in the state of Kansas.

Cody joined our company in 2017 as an appraisal assistant to LeAnn Adams and Mike DeHass and has spent the last 4 years training and completing the process to earn his license.

We are very grateful to have Cody as a part of Martens Appraisal and know from experience he will be a valuable asset to our team of appraisers. Congratulations, Cody! You've earned it!
