#IAMKDOT: John Gatz

This month's #IAMKDOT  feature is John Gatz.

Gatz is a Senior Engineering Technician from District 5 and has worked at KDOT for almost 15 years. He began his career as an Engineering Technician. 

Gatz would describe himself as a Father, a son, husband and a golf enthusiast.

This illustration shows Gatz inspecting the quality and construction of the rumble strips on US-400 in Eastern Pratt Co. 

#IAMKDOT is an illustration project that recognizes KDOT employees who work hard to ensure Kansans enjoy safe roads, rails and skies. Safe and successful transportation also helps Kansans financially. Some employees of KDOT fill dangerous but necessary positions and this project also serves as a reminder for travelers to slow down and remember that underneath those neon vests, are individuals with families and hobbies waiting for them at home.
