Project Philosophy
From my perspective, the biggest difference in how smoothly a major renovation goes is the amount of planning that happens before construction begins. Remodeling will always come with unexpected challenges once work starts, but taking the time during the design phase to think through details, selections, and potential issues helps create a smoother process for everyone involved.
What’s just as important is building trust with our clients. We want them to feel confident that we understand their goals and that we’re working toward creating a space that meets their expectations
Local Expertise
I really enjoy working on homes throughout the south metro area because many neighborhoods have similar floor plans, but every homeowner has a different vision for how they want to use their space. It’s exciting to take a familiar layout and help transform it into something that feels completely unique to that family.
I especially enjoy projects where there is an opportunity to rethink how a space functions, whether that’s a kitchen, a whole-level remodel, or a major layout transformation.
One of my favorite moments in a project is seeing the space after the drywall goes up. After all the planning and decisions, you finally get to see the new layout take shape and the space start to feel ready for the finishing details.
Design-Build Value
The biggest value of a design-build approach is having everyone involved working together from the beginning. The designers, construction team, and production team all understand the vision, the details, and what needs to happen to bring the project to life.
Having everything under one roof helps create better communication throughout the process. Instead of a homeowner coordinating between separate companies, the entire team works toward the same goal of creating a finished space that reflects the client’s needs and expectations.
Life Outside JBDB
Outside of work, I love to cook, try new restaurants, or go to different events with my friends. In the summer, I like to spend time outside, like playing beach volleyball, getting a drink on a patio, or heading up to our family friend’s cabin.
