Khue Le, President

Khue Le

President

Khue started his career in the restoration industry as a door‑to‑door salesman for a local Twin Cities roofing company in 2006. In 2012 Apple Construction offered him a partnership in exchange for building and growing their restoration division. Since Khue joined the company, Apple has enjoyed steady growth every year and has become well respected in the industry.

As General Manager, Khue oversees all company operations: sales, marketing, production, project management, estimating and administration. He is a hands‑on leader who spends more time in the field working with homeowners, insurance adjusters and subcontractors than sitting in the office.

Khue’s demanding day does not end after work. He is a husband and a father of two, Teddy and Eleanor. Whether it is summer or winter, he spends as much time outdoors with his kids as possible. If he is not with his children, it must be Sunday during football season – SKOL Vikings!
