Director of Maintenance Change – Farewell to Andy and welcome Christopher!

SEATTLE, Wash. – We want to give a heartfelt goodbye to our Maintenance Director Andy Wyatt, who has begun his well-earned retirement in 2025, and welcome our new Director of Maintenance Christopher Horn.

Craig Swanson, Redside’s Principal, had some appreciation to share. “We were sorry to see Andy drive off into retirement today—he’s been outstanding for Redside for over eight years, and we wish him all the best as he moves to Montana,” Swanson stated. “He’s helped us build a great maintenance team that we look forward to continuing to grow!”

We sent Andy off with a margarita and a laughter-filled lunch at local favorite, Fogon. “Working for Redside has been some of the best years of my life,” Wyatt stated as he unrolled his new Lost Lake Cafe sweater from a gift basket. Thank you for all the fond memories and your effort to Redside Maintenance Andy! We will miss you!

With that, please welcome Christopher Horn! “Joining Redside Partners as the new Director of Maintenance is an incredible privilege, and I am truly grateful for the opportunity to work alongside such a dynamic team,” Christopher stated. Horn was in the United States Airforce Rank E-5 from 2009 to 2014 and has gained experience as a technician, manager, planner, and engineer in the years following. “My focus will be on implementing proactive maintenance strategies that improve efficiency, reduce costs, and elevate our service standards,” Horn stated. We look forward to seeing all of the improvements you bring to the team, Christopher!
