About Luke

Luke lives in Goshen with his wife, MaryBeth.  They have three children Victoria, Brandon, and Annalisa.

Understanding the Hoosier values of family, faith, hard work, and freedom comes very natural to Luke Puckett.   It was not long after moving to Michiana as a young child did he become a die hard Notre Dame football fan.  Luke married a South Bend born and raised farmer’s daughter who was also his high school sweetheart. After almost 20 years of marriage Luke says, “I’m more in love with her today than when I said ‘I do’.” 

As a husband, father of three, entrepreneur, and small businessman, Luke learned early on that it would take hard work, commitment, and visionary outlook of the future to make a difference in this world.   After having lived and worked in Central America Luke and family have a very insightful grasp as to why people outside our borders want to live free like Americans.  Luke has not only made a difference internationally but right here in Northern Indiana as well. 

Luke’s companies have not only brought lasting employment to Hoosiers but Luke has exported those core Hoosier values to other parts of the world.  He has accomplished this through his humanitarian and international micro finance initiatives.  Working with foreign governments and small business entrepreneurs in other countries Luke has gained valuable insight and experience.  He has found, implemented, and managed solutions to build better economies and improve the lives of the local citizens.  Not only does he work internationally but Luke, most recently, has kept his entrepreneurial skills honed by starting his Elkhart based Monster Pontoon Corp..

Luke readily admits that he loves the challenge of business but what truly motivates him is his love for God, country, and passion to help people succeed in life.  Luke and family are members of First Baptist Church where they are actively involved with the youth and missions.     

Luke began his education at South Western Michigan University, earned a B.A. in languages and theology from Northland Bible College, and ended in Costa Rica with an MA in Spanish from the Spanish Language Institute.
