Jacob has been working in the steel industry since 2015 where he started as a designer within a global architecture, engineering, and project management firm. Through modest and large-scale projects, Jake became a steel detailer, focused on the finer minutiae of steel fabrication deliverables. His eagle eye accuracy and quick turnaround not only produces quality detail sheets, erection sheets, and production files, but also allows him to serve our clients with estimodeling services prior to them needing to submit their steel package bid to their clients. He is trained in SDS2 and with his managerial background has the big picture thinking needed to augment project success.

Jacob’s love of details extends to his free time where he builds finely finished tables and other wood pieces. And there isn’t a bit of origami that perplexes him; he’s created the most intricate of designs. Having had six (so far) loyal dogs by his side, it’s no wonder that at home he’s known as the Dog Whisperer.
