PJ Lara
General Manager
With over 15 years of experience in team management and leadership, I am dedicated to delivering exceptional service to our customers. My passion lies in ensuring their satisfaction and providing best-in-class solutions. As a data-driven professional, I thrive on analyzing insights to optimize processes and drive results. When I’m not leading teams, you’ll find me off-roading in Moab, experimenting with new baking recipes, or tending to my garden.

Wes Porter
Field Manager
With a decade of hands-on experience in the industry, I take pride in delivering optimal HVAC performance. I’m deeply passionate about customer service and believe in going above and beyond to ensure that our clients receive not just quality workmanship but also exceptional care and attention. After work, I’m found in the great outdoors and am an avid hiker and biker who finds joy in nature and sharing experiences with my beautiful family.

Mike Moe
Comfort Advisor
With over 20 years of experience at HomeSmart, I offer a wealth of experience in guiding you through your heating and cooling system choices and recommend solutions that match your requirements and budget. Rather than being just a salesperson, I provide education first and serve as a consultant, which allows you to make informed decisions with confidence. When I am not working, you can find me tackling a home improvement project or spending time with my family.

Jim Dudley
Comfort Advisor
I have been in the HVAC industry for multiple decades, which allows me to give you multiple well-thought-out options that meet your home’s functional and comfort needs. I enjoy fishing, especially with my wife, Tracy, and our handful of grandkids. I am also a local professional sports fan, so you can sometimes find me at a Minnesota Wild or Timberwolves game.

Todd Riebe
Comfort Advisor
I am proud to say I have almost 30 years in the HVAC industry, most of which is with HomeSmart. During those years, I have gained plenty of experience with installation, service project management and sales. I am a technical guy, which allows me to dig into what we need to do to make sure your new system delivers the comfort and efficiency you want and deserve. Outside of work, I enjoy family time with my wife and son or getting in some throttle therapy with snowmobiling and muscle cars.

Regina Taylor
Inside Sales Representative
I have worked for HomeSmart for 6 years, selling water heaters in Minnesota and scheduling appointments for HomeSmart comfort advisors. In my free time, I enjoy spending all my time with my adult children and my first grandchild. We like finding new places to do all things outside – walk, hike, cook, swim, and admire the scenery – whether we are in the mountains or on the beach.

Trey Brekke
Sales Order Coordinator
Hey there! I’m Trey and have been with HomeSmart for 2 years this upcoming fall working in the call center as a customer service representative. Although my time here has been short, I have made it a point in my life to surround myself with job opportunities that involve helping people and attempting to make them feel better when they leave than they did when they came in. I have served in other Customer service-based jobs for 15 years. In my free time you can expect me to be doing something adventurous and outdoors with my children and husband and 2 dogs as we were full time Rv’ers for 2-3 years or relaxing tending to my garden.
