HOW DO WE ACTIVATE OUR MISSION IN OUR BUSINESS OPERATIONS?

Josh

Owner / Project Development and Interior Design

Josh grew up 2nd of 5 children in Monterey Bay, CA to parents who were teachers. He studied Literature, Philosophy, and Religion in College, getting his BA and MA at Point Loma Nazarene University before moving to Colorado in 2006. He worked as a teacher, and in the social services field before landing in construction, where he has happily spent the last dozen years. Professionally, he has a knack for systems and process, is detail-oriented, and enjoys coming up with creative designs that are outside the box and serve a mix of form and function.

Josh is married and has a blended family of 5 children. In his spare time, he enjoys reading (especially Brene Brown), fitness and nutrition, hiking, and music, and has been vegan for 19 years.

Justin

Co-Owner / Director of Field Operations

Justin has had a passion for design and building almost all of his life. He enjoys working with a team of talented craftsmen to design, build and remodel homes. He studied architectural drafting in college and has been in the industry for over twenty years with a commitment to helping his customers design and build the house of their dreams. He is proud of the mission of Truth Design Build and is attentive to quality and details. 

Justin is also a dedicated husband, married for almost twenty years, and a loving father of four children, two boys and two girls, ages 10-15. He is also a proud owner of a little soft white dog named Gizmo who loves to sit on Justin’s lap or be at his side while he is working. One of Justin’s best qualities is the ability to remain calm during stressful situations. He enjoys hiking and recently started running again with his wife around the lake in the early morning.

Amanda is married with five wild but wonderful children, a French Bulldog, 4 chickens, two rabbits, and more plants than she can count. She spends her free time trying to keep all the creatures alive, working out, working on house projects, and outside in her gardens.

Phoebe

Senior Designer
Phoebe is a Boulder native who has lived and worked from coast to coast, but is happy to be back home doing what she loves.  She was 16 when she knew she wanted to be a designer, as she saw the impact that a space can have on someone physically, mentally and emotionally. Now with 10+ years of Residential Design Experience, it is her passion to help others make their home everything they want it to be.
 
When she isn’t designing she loves to play with her cat and go eat delicious vegan food with her family and friends.

TYLER

Site Superintendent

Tyler grew up in the Shenandoah Valley, Virginia. With a multitude of family members in the construction industry, he began his training as a carpenter well before he was old enough to drive a car. As a teenager he spent much of his summers assisting family members on various job sites, soaking up key experiences that would shape the professional that he is today. After receiving his bachelor’s degree from Virginia Tech, Tyler honed his skills as a finish carpenter renovating historic homes in Southwest Virginia.

Relocating to Denver, CO in 2014, Tyler joined a residential design-build firm and began working on a variety of projects across the city. Although he initially came on as a Finish Carpenter, Tyler soon went on to become a Project Manager, Pre-Construction Manager and finally Estimator. He then spent three years on his own specializing in high-end finish carpentry and custom cabinetry design before teaming up with Truth Design Build.

He has a diverse background in many aspects of the construction industry including commercial and residential buildings. He loves seeing a project develop from nothing to something beautiful and takes great pride in his work.

When he’s not at work Joe loves to spend his time traveling the world, hiking around the foothills near Denver, and tending to his garden.

August

Carpenter

August is a Colorado native who grew up in Lakewood. Having a father who is a plumber, he was introduced to the construction industry at a young age, where he soon learned he enjoys working with his hands and loves the satisfaction of watching a project evolve into something beautiful. He has become quite versatile working in many different fields from installing tile to painting to framing, but finds his passion in finish carpentry as he has an obsession for detail.

When August isn’t working hard he is usually found trying to learn something new and interesting about just about anything wether that’s reading a book or listening to a podcast. He also enjoys hiking, kicking back with friends, listening to music and playing his guitar or bass.
