Kevin Hauschel grew up in Snohomish, Washington. His passion for the outdoors and agriculture was shaped early, complemented by his love for sports. After playing college baseball at Washington State University, Kevin earned a degree in Criminal Justice but found his true calling working at Palouse Ridge Golf Club.

Drawn to the intersection of land stewardship and science, Kevin returned to WSU to complete degrees in Integrated Plant Sciences and Viticulture. This marked the beginning of a 15-year career in the golf industry, where he combined his agricultural roots with innovative turf management strategies.

As Golf Course Superintendent at the prestigious Meadow Club, Kevin made a name for himself by helping to restore the course’s elite status as one of the Top 100 Classic Courses in the United States. He leveraged a data-driven agronomic approach, incorporating cutting-edge technologies such as Greensight’s daily drone imagery service, TurfCloud's job board platform, and Soil Scout’s wireless in-ground sensors. These tools allowed for measurable gains in turf health, playability, and resource efficiency—reducing labor, water, chemical, and fertilizer use while enhancing course conditions.

Kevin’s success at Meadow Club led him to join Greensight as Head of West Coast Sales, where he helped scale the company’s commercial agriculture division from $250,000 to $7 million in annual revenue and expanded the team to 13 employees in just 4 years. He played a critical role in bringing robotic mowing to the U.S. market in partnership with Husqvarna, while continuing to champion automation and sensor-based technology for golf courses and agricultural clients across the country.

Now, as he joins Rainmaker.Earth, Kevin is excited to focus on sustainable water treatment and efficiency solutions. His mission is to educate and support farmers, golf course superintendents, and sports field managers in integrating Rainmaker's technology into their operations. The goal is clear: help clients run more sustainable, cost-effective, and profitable operations—while improving water quality, soil health, and long-term environmental impact in the Golf Course, Sports Turf, and Agriculture industries.

At Rainmaker.Earth, we don’t just sell technology—we partner with each client to ensure they achieve their desired results.
