Principal / Business Development
At a young age, Jeff began his career in the construction industry by pouring concrete and building swimming pools in Northeastern Pennsylvania.
In 1988, Jeff and his wife relocated south to raise their three children. He continued his work in construction, obtaining his Residential Home Builder’s license in 1990 and his General Contractor's License in 2005. Jeff’s extensive experience spans both residential and commercial construction.
In the early 1990s, Jeff and his brother ventured into concrete production, a business that remains operational today. Jeff notes that “supply chain challenges on Hilton Head Island inspired them to take action” to ensure projects were completed on schedule.
Having been based in Hilton Head for nearly 40 years, Jeff has a deep understanding of the local market, tradesmen, and has assembled a skilled team dedicated to delivering exceptional work while adhering to schedules.
Jeff has collaborated with many local architects and engineers and boasts a robust portfolio of completed projects.
He prefers a "boutique" approach, combining substantial resources with the personalized service of a small company.
