# Trevor Maddux

> Trevor Maddux is the co-founder and CEO of MotionOps, a Sandy, Utah software company building an all-in-one operating system for home and field service companies - plumbers, electricians, landscapers, remodelers and the like. He spent roughly two decades inside the trades, helping grow companies like Vivint and co-founding Cransten Service All Stars, one of the largest handyman and remodeling firms in the United States, before getting tired of stitching together four or five disconnected apps to run a single business. MotionOps grew out of an internal tool he was building for his own crews; when his technical co-founder asked whether he was building it just for himself or for everyone, the company was born. In 2023 MotionOps raised a $1.2M pre-seed round led by Alpine 100.
