Jim Stirewalt
Owner & General Manager
Jim didn’t start in cabinetry—but you could say he’s come full circle. After decades leading global teams at IBM, SAP, and high-growth startups, he returned to his roots in 2024 by stepping into local business ownership. Jim’s family has a legacy in cabinetry back in Wheeling, WV, and now he brings that same pride and precision to East Tennessee.
At KCC, Jim’s focus is simple: make this the builders', designers' and homeowners' first choice for premium cabinetry by combining top-tier service, local craftsmanship, and a rock-solid customer experience. Jim and his wife Susan recently became empty nesters and now call Tennessee National home, where they’re active in the community, including his volunteer work with Thrive Ministries.
