Seaside Construction

Jeff has been in the building industry for over 20 years. He grew up helping his father build cabinets and furniture. From a young age he learned the importance of quality craftsmanship, and the hard work that necessitates. This knowledge resonates into his approach to managing each project, as well as managing Seaside Construction as a whole.    

After graduating from the University of Houston, Jeff spent nine years at one of Houston's largest home builders. Starting as a Construction Manager, Jeff's work ethic and knowledge propelled him through the ranks to Director of Construction, Director of Sales, and eventually Vice President of Operations. As Construction Manager, Jeff built over 100 homes in the greater Houston area. As Vice President of Operations, Jeff was responsible for the construction of over 1,100 new homes annually.

Jeff runs Seaside Construction in the professional manner he learned in the corporate world, but with a personal hands-on approach you expect to find at a smaller company.  As a U.S. Navy Veteran and former Special Amphibious Reconnaissance Corpsman, Jeff has an intense commitment to excellence and his clients.
