He was brought along to help us satisfy a "correction notice" that he was able to help us navigate through very easily. He was smart, quick, and had all the answers to all of my detailed questions.......like he knew exactly what I was going to say or was thinking. Pretty impressive! He was able to "feed" me the information in a way that I'm able to understand very easily. Always picked up his phone and emailed me back right away. If you're looking for excellence and efficiency in your next project, I highly recommend you hire Jason! ### All 8 reviews **★★★★★ — Tom Flint, Oct. 2020** > Jason handled all the design for the complete renovation of our 40 year old 3000 sq ft home. I very much appreciate Jason's attention to detail, his humble personal style, and integrity. He can always be trusted to be thorough and meet deadlines. His designs are very good, carefully drawn and insightful. Very professional documentation. I will admit, some less knowledgeable general contractors are unaccustomed to reading and working with professional drawings. Something to be watchful of. His fees are always reasonable. > > I would gladly hire Jason again. **★★★★★ — Patrick Ferris, Oct. 2020** > From our first meeting with Jason, we found that he was a great listener as he heard what both my wife and I wanted for our new home. He kept a list of what we needed AND what we wished for and incorporated that into our project. As the project moved along, he responded to our email questions and texts quickly and kept us forward moving, adding helpful contacts along the way. Jason is very knowledgeable about both commercial and residential building, and with his guidance, we blended that new knowledge into the building of our home. > After discussing with us, Jason drew what we envisioned and also added his unique touch to polish the ideas for our dream home. We have highly recommended him to our family and friends and will continue to do so. **★★★★★ — Matt Leffler, Nov. 2019** > Jason did the architectural work for our gut rehab. He was extremely professional, went out of his way to meet deadlines and genuinely cared about the work he did. I would recommend him very highly. **★★★★★ — Roy Griggs, May 2019** > Jason was an absolute pleasure and professional. His experience and knowledge overly impressed the clients and ultimately made working through the project scope of work a breeze. We thank Jason for his excellence and will definitely be using his services again for future projects. **★★★★★ — HU-911880889, May 2019** > Jason does excellent work for my company. Always provides multiple options, high quality work with excellent response time and customer focused. **★★★★★ — Mary Cavanaugh, Sept. 2018** > I’ve had the pleasure of working with Jason for the past 10 years, and I can honestly say the projects we have collaborated on are some of the most enjoyable and rewarding of my 30+ year career. We have learned a lot from each other despite the difference in the stages of our career. Jason just “gets” architecture- he is a thoughtful designer, technical detailer, researcher- you name it. He is incredibly thorough and committed to both the client and success of each project. Quiet and soft-spoken, Jason is a master at what he does. **★★★★★ — Studio LFD, Aug. 2018** > I have worked with Jason for the past 10 years on a wide variety of projects and he is an incredible architect! He has the perfect balance of design ingenuity and technical savvy that many design professionals lack. His strengths lie in his ability to creatively solve complex design issues and develop clever solutions that are beautiful and timeless. Beyond that, Jason is the hardest working architect I have ever known. He will work night and day to achieve the optimal design solution aesthetically, while adhering to time frame, build-ability and budget. Don't think twice and hire Jason. ## Selected projects - [Elmwood Drive](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/elmwood-drive-pj-vj~4214408) - Location: Ann Arbor, MI - Photos: 13 - Description: At the crest of a hill, the existing home on this site was demolished to the foundations.
