Our Team

Lorne Wikstrom

Owner/Engineer

I started Wikstrom Engineering Consulting in 2016 to help building owners, property managers, and façade access employers with their inspections and certifications. In 2026, we joined Applied Technical Services (ATS). I love meeting new people and enjoy working with them year after year. I have built great rapport with our customers and they appreciate my attention to detail. They learn that I’m not someone who cuts corners and love my thoroughness, because rooftop safety is important to them and their business. I love that my job takes me to new places. I also have several favorite restaurants in cities I’ve visited over the years, and I often try to find a new Asian restaurant during my trips. I’ve been doing this a long time and while I have the utmost respect for heights, I can still get that funny feeling sometimes in certain situations.

Jared Poyhonen

Inspection Technician

I’ve been working with Lorne since 2022. I’m most excited about the opportunity to learn and grow with a small company. I love the travel; getting to see the country. Every day is different which makes it very exciting and interesting. When I’m not traveling for work I enjoy a lot of outdoor activities such as hiking, downhill skiing, biking, fishing and hunting. Nights on the road you can find me catching a movie or a good TV show while relaxing closer to ground level.

Levi Wickersham

Inspection Technician

I joined the team spring of 2023. I care deeply about safety, and know the testing and inspections we do make sure things are in working order to help keep people safe. The thing I love most about my job is that I get to see beautiful views in interesting places. Surprisingly, nothing beats a good food truck! Every day is different and exciting. And it is nice being a part of a company where you know your team and can attest that they really are good folks. Every trip I take I try to find a weird or interesting souvenir for my kids. I have come home with all sorts of things, but so far, the fan favorite has been a cool rock I found. You never know what will be a hit!
