RIVERVIEW, MI, January 16, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Garrett M. Tank has been selected for inclusion in Marquis Who's Who. As in all Marquis Who's Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.

Mr. Tank has served as the owner of Wm. F. McGraw & Co. since 2019, where he manages all aspects of the business, including shop operations, payroll and human resources, billing, invoicing and quoting, purchase orders, staff supervision and deadline enforcement, as well as inventory and material procurement. He relies on his team for machining and fabricating parts, fostering a collaborative environment that has become a cornerstone of the company's success. Under his leadership, Wm. F. McGraw & Co. employs five individuals, two of whom have been with the business since its inception. He is dedicated to growing the company by building upon its established foundation and maintaining strong relationships with loyal customers.

Taking ownership of Wm. F. McGraw & Co. marked a significant milestone in Mr. Tank's professional journey. He considers his greatest achievement to be the risk he took in acquiring the business during his forties, a decision guided by his Christian faith and trust in God. The unwavering support of his employees has been instrumental in overcoming challenges, as they have consistently demonstrated their commitment to the company's shared success.

Prior to his current role, Mr. Tank built a strong 15-year foundation as an engineer with Hexagon Metrology. This tenure played a significant role in shaping both his technical expertise and professional development. The demands of the position required extensive travel and time away from family, presenting meaningful personal and logistical challenges. Throughout this period, he remained confident that God had a greater purpose for his life and his family's future. His experience at Hexagon served as an important stepping stone—an invaluable chapter in his career, though not the culmination of his professional journey.

Mr. Tank's educational background includes earning a associates degree in criminal justice from Schoolcraft Community College in Livonia in 2017. Although he initially aspired to pursue a career aligned with this field, a serious back injury altered his path. While working at Hexagon Metrology, he began coursework toward a master's degree in project management but ultimately chose not to complete it as new opportunities emerged.

The values instilled by Mr. Tank's parents, particularly the importance of entrepreneurship, have been central to his professional philosophy. Inspired by their example and motivated by a desire for personal fulfillment and spiritual growth, he pursued business ownership as a means to achieve both professional success and work-life balance.

In addition to his business endeavors, Mr. Tank is actively involved in civic initiatives. He volunteers at Christ the King Church and supports Gleaners through food and clothing donations, reflecting his commitment to community service.

As a father of three children, Mr. Tank enjoys spending time with his family and engaging in outdoor activities such as golf, hiking and snow skiing. He is also dedicated to coaching his daughter's volleyball and basketball teams and participates enthusiastically in his children's sports activities.

Looking ahead, Mr. Tank is focused on expanding Wm. F. McGraw Co., aiming for consistent annual growth while creating new employment opportunities throughout Michigan and beyond. He is passionate about making a positive impact on the community through initiatives designed to support families facing hardship, whether by assisting with medical expenses for children, helping the homeless or providing financial relief for those struggling to make ends meet.

Garrett Tank attributes his success in both life and business to the grace of Jesus Christ and the unwavering love and support of his wife, Sandra Tank. He shares, "Nothing in my life would be possible without Jesus Christ — every blessing comes from our Savior."
