GENERAL CONTRACTOR / 500+ HOMES BUILT / ICC CALIFORNIA BUILDING INSPECTOR / 10,000+ INSPECTIONS COMPLETED
There are two ways to build
Most people only know about one.
Hiring a general contractor is the familiar path — you hand off the project, and someone else runs it. Becoming an owner-builder means you take on that role yourself, with the right guidance behind you. It’s a real choice, and it’s one most homeowners never realize they have.
No matter what type of project - I can prepare you for what is coming.
Every project type has its own permit path, its own trades, and its own pitfalls
How it works
Four phases. One process. No guesswork.
01
Plans
Defining scope, finding your designer, and knowing what you’ll need.
02
Permits
The right agencies, process, and timeline.
03
Power team
Finding, vetting, and hiring your insurance, subcontractors, vendors, and inspectors.
04
Production
Scheduling, material orders, draws, and inspections, in order.
“I’m a second-generation general contractor who’s built over 500 homes and completed more than 6,000 inspections as an ICC California Building Inspector and over 4,000 during my own projects. I’ve spent a career on both sides of the process — building and inspecting — and now I teach owner-builders how to run their own project with real confidence.”
