The eldest son
of the Founder, Phil Gohres, Marc was born in Orange
County, California in 1965. Marc
started learning about business early in life on the job sites of his father’s
construction company, and always enjoyed the satisfaction and pride when he was
involved in new construction. In the 7th grade he became interested in
computers and the new technologies that were being introduced and immediately
realized the advantages of using them in business and construction. Actively
pursuing such technologies, Mr. Gohres achieved a level of proficiency with
programming and networks that was precursor or to what is now the Internet.
Marc was one of the original members and pioneers of FIDONET, the world’s first
global network long before the Internet was introduced. Mr. Gohres takes great
pride in helping pioneer the technology that has now changed the world, as we
know it. Very early in life Mr. Gohres actively pursued his interests in
computer science with what information was available at the time. He learned
several computer languages along with digital electronics theory and binary
algebra so that he could develop his own software and computer systems. By the
time he was in high school, he was allowed to take several advanced courses at
Saddleback community college at night and was granted his first copyright; TXU 67-952 in
1981 for a drafting program designed for the first generation 8088
microprocessors.
Marc had learned the family business of construction while growing
up and his father's work ethics made him want to follow in his footsteps. After
High school, he started working full-time for the company as lead foreman while
taking several college courses at night. He proceeded to work at the company
with his father and formed his own corporation, Omni Corp. as a secondary
business for his computer services, aviation endeavors and patent operations.
In 1992 Marc assumed the responsibility of the controlling position of the
construction company shortly after starting a new division in Las Vegas area of Nevada. Mr. Gohres
focuses most of his energy on his construction company, as the explosive growth
in the Las Vegas valley
continues to expand. Gohres Construction
has several impressive projects and achievements to their credits, including
the prestige of being in the top 400 largest builders as reported by
Professional Builder magazine for five years in a row. Gohres Construction and
it's subsidiary companies are the developers and builders of the impressive
Rancho Del Norte I and II master planned communities in North Las Vegas, and
1789 condominium units at Villas I, Villas II, Villas III, Decatur
Villas and Craig Road Villas. Rancho Del Norte has
over 2,000 homes, representing six successful builders and boasting two city
parks, exercise stations and other amenities. It also features a 600,000
square-foot shopping center complex.
Despite the risk of pioneering the development of a community in a
part of town not accustomed to such benefits, Rancho Del Norte was an
immediate, award-winning success. Gohres Construction, led by Marc Gohres was
proud to bring the first planned unit development in the city of North Las
Vegas along with the general infrastructure. Mr. Gohres
currently oversees all estimating and job procurements, project management and
performs all field supervision of crew foremen. Marc Gohres has tremendous
construction experience and is a "hands-on" principal who has applied
his knowledge and extensive educational background in computer technologies to
the construction industry. Omni Corp. created the current management
information system used by Gohres construction and allows all of the Gohres
family of companies to access business information and resources on a global
scale, twenty-four hours a day. Omni Corp also handles all corporate aircraft,
and oversees the operations and scheduling. Marc credits much of his business
success to the advantages of being a pilot, extensive knowledge of computers
and their architecture, networking and the new wireless technologies that has
brought instant access to information to his companies.
Mr. Gohres is currently on the board of directors of 5 Nevada corporations
and is proud to call the Las Vegas valley home.
He lives in the Summerlin area of the Las Vegas valley with
his wife and two children. Marc enjoys
running marathons, boating, golf, water sports, snow skiing, traveling, flying
all types of aircraft and is a devoted family man who likes to invest time with
his children, charities and other organizations that bring a better life to
those less fortunate. Mr. Gohres is licensed instrument rated pilot and uses
that resource to enhance his abilities to be wherever our companies need him to
be. He enjoys flying all kinds of aircraft and helicopters and is continually
furthering his certificates and ratings to be able to fly a more diversified
portfolio of aircraft. Marc proudly volunteers his time and abilities in the
United States Air Force Auxiliary, Civil Air Patrol as a search and rescue
pilot in the Nellis Air Force Base Senior Squadron.
