Meet Our Craftsmen
Jeff
Project Manager
Jeff has over 20 years experience in the construction field working on his own remodels and those for others. Prior to working with CenterBeam, he owned a business for 16 years and excels at customer interaction, customer service and job management. He is well versed in carpentry, framing and solving all problems associated with an older home. It’s no wonder why why his nickname is MacGruber. And one interaction with Jeff will help anyone understand why everyone speaks so highly of him.
Christina
Building Contractor
It’s been over 10 years that Christina has held the official coveted contractor’s license but she’s been dabbling in design and construction for over a decade. She is a Florida native who has always enjoyed history, nostalgia and a challenge. After 18 years of running a lucrative retail business, she simply decided it was time to pursue a more fulfilling life. One that offered a better balance between home, work and happiness. And along came CenterBeam. It was simply a natural choice as it encapsulated everything she enjoyed.
Steve
Lead Trim Craftsman
Steve has always been interested in building things and he has been in construction ever since he can remember deciding against computer programming. He has been working with CenterBeam for over 7 years and shows appreciation for all things old and historic. And it certainly shows up in his work. Our clients are always happy with the final outcome. No matter if it’s a standard five inch baseboard, a custom built vanity or specialty tongue and groove boards that he milled on site to match an existing old porch ceiling.
