My name is David and I co-founded Crown Jade with my father Mark. I am head of drafting at the company. Before starting the firm, I worked in construction from my teenage years doing everything from framing, finish work, tile, drywall, building steel buildings and log homes. Of course, being the son of a carpenter, we have been building and working from a young age, my brothers and I built a two-story fort as children. When I was age 14 my father, brothers and I built the family home. Having that hands on experience with all types of building & building materials gives me an advantage when it comes to drafting, design work and being able to see how a house comes together.

Through our company I get to see people realize their dream of building the home they always wanted or making the home they already own perfect for them. Helping that happen is very rewarding by providing a complete, competent and aesthetically pleasing set of Architectural & Structural plans to take to the building department to get a permit.

I live in the Buckhorn Canyon outside of Fort Collins, CO with my wife, 6 children and our Saint Bernard & Pug where we enjoy all sorts of outdoor activities like hiking & biking our land, swimming in the Poudre Canyon and riding the many bike trails around Fort Collins. We also enjoy a homemade pizza and movie night every Friday. I like to have them help on our projects around the house to instill that work ethic I learned as a child and to make sure they start their own adult lives with knowledge that most are not able to learn nowadays.
