We're a Waco-grown painting company on a mission to do this work the right way — building a place where employees and painting partners alike do work that matters, get paid what they're worth, and grow as far as they want to go.
I'm a Waco local. Born here, raised here, and now raising my own family here with my wife Makayla and our daughter Margot — and come June 2026, our second daughter Estie. This town has shaped everything about me, and Yellow Rose is my way of giving back to it.
I started Yellow Rose in 2021 with my friend Mason, who'd built Spray Tex Painting up in DFW. We saw the same gap in Central Texas — homeowners and businesses who deserved a painting company that actually listened, kept its word, and cared about doing right by both customers and the people on the crew.
Five years later, we have a team I'm genuinely proud of. If you want to build a career somewhere people know your name, where your work is respected, and where there's real room to grow — I'd love to meet you.
Whether you're looking for a full-time career or a long-term painting partnership, we have a path for you in Central Texas.
Sales advisors, field supervisors, project managers, office team, and color consultants — the people who run our operation and shape the customer experience.
Skilled independent painters and established crews who want consistent quality work, transparent and on-time pay, and a company that treats you like family — not a commodity.
These aren't perks. They're commitments we hold ourselves to — written into how we run this company, for employees and partners alike.
A real sense of belonging. You'll know the people you work with — and they'll know you.
Real opportunities to grow — in skill, in income, in leadership. We invest in your future.
We say the hard things. We follow up. You'll always know where you stand and where we stand.
Your ideas, concerns, and feedback shape this company. We hold space for what you bring.
Team members are invited to help shape the company's future. Your input doesn't just matter — it moves things.
We bring dignity and pride to the trade. Our standards lift everyone on the team — including you.
Real benefits for the people who run our operation day in and day out across Central Texas.

Independent contractors are not eligible for the W-2 benefits above. What you can expect from us instead: a steady flow of quality work, fair and transparent pay delivered on time, professional support and coaching, and a long-term partnership built on respect. We treat our painting partners as family — because that's exactly what you are to us.
These aren't posters on a wall. They're how we hire, how we lead, and how we hold ourselves accountable to each other and to the people we serve.
Our commitments matter. If we say we'll do something, you can count on it. And when something goes wrong, we're the first to let you know, make it right, and learn from it.
We keep it real. Genuine connections, honest feedback, no pretending. We stay true to who we are while welcoming growth and challenge.
We're grateful for our team, our partners, our customers, and the chance to do this work. Gratitude fuels how we show up.
Challenges are opportunities. Feedback moves us forward. We balance the drive to improve with respect for what's already working — at a pace that fits each person.
We listen to uncover what people truly need. Feeling understood matters more than being right. That's how true partnerships are built.
We invest in our people. Here's what a long-term path at Yellow Rose can look like.
Office support, color consultant, or sales advisor. Learn the craft, the customer, and our standards.
Sales advisor or field supervisor. Own projects, build customer relationships, and start mentoring others.
Project manager or senior sales advisor. Run your part of the business and develop the next generation.
Department lead or future ownership opportunity. Help shape what Yellow Rose becomes.
This isn't a fixed track. We meet people where they are and build a growth plan around their unique gifts. Want to dive deep into one role for years? Great. Want to keep moving? We'll back that too.
This isn't the right place for everyone — and that's the point. Here's who fits.
