AK Construction

Like many American success stories A & K Construction Inc. began as a young man's dream. Owner and President Ken Hunt developed an interest in construction as a teenager helping a contractor who was building his father's first large home in Paducah Kentucky. When he went off to college he surprised his family by electing not to follow his father and brother into the family business of orthopedic surgery. Ken graduated in 1980 with a B.S. in Construction Technology from Murray State University in Murray Kentucky. Hunt spent a few years working as a project manager for contractors in the industry gaining in experience and knowledge. He also discovered that he was a natural leader and thoroughly enjoyed tackling big projects. Later he spent two years as a project manager for Industrial Contractors a large construction firm in Evansville Indiana.
