Project Executive, IMEG; MBA, Bethel University
How often do you sell a company? Quast did it at just 31 years old. He was a project electrical engineer and director of finance and administration at LKPB Engineers Inc., in Minneapolis, where he headed the company’s merger with IMEG. His career started at LKPB in 2010 after earning a degree in electrical engineering from the University of Minnesota, where he also was a Division I gymnast. Quast designed and analyzed power distribution, lighting systems and fire alarm systems for clients in the education, corporate and commercial sectors, while earning his MBA in 2014 and his professional engineer’s license in 2016. In addition to managing the merger, Quast drove the organization’s financial operations and managed the administrative staff, outsourced IT, human resources and payroll operations. In 2019, he began serving as IMEG’s operations manager for the Minneapolis mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) engineering team. In 2023, he was promoted to project executive, managing approximately $3.3 million in fees — the largest of his local team. Quast also sits on two Ebenezer Management boards that oversee federal Housing and Urban Development low-income senior housing apartment complexes in suburban Minneapolis-St. Paul and is a member of the North Central Electrical League and the Minnesota Chapter of Association of Physical Plant Administrators. Outside of work, he volunteers with Give Kids a Smile, an American Dental Association program that offers free annual dental clinics for children. Quast also enjoys spending time with his wife, two children and two dogs.
