Jake Stone

Project Executive (CA)

Jake Stone brings more than 20 years of construction industry experience to our California region, along with a passion for people and project success. Having worked from an owner/developer perspective, Jake gained valuable insight into every stage of the project lifecycle, from planning and design through construction and long-term asset performance. This experience helps him anticipate client priorities, align construction decisions with broader business objectives, and deliver projects with a strong focus on value, risk management, and long-term performance.

With extensive expertise in multifamily construction and residential development, Jake has built a proven track record of delivering exceptional project outcomes and client experiences. His background strengthens our California project teams by bringing a well-rounded perspective to residential, mixed-use, and multifamily developments. By combining strategic thinking with hands-on construction leadership, Jake helps clients achieve successful projects that meet both operational and business goals.

Jake’s leadership philosophy is simple: people perform at their best when they feel valued and supported. He is committed to building strong, collaborative teams where individuals can grow, contribute their unique strengths, and succeed together. By investing in relationships and creating opportunities for professional development, Jake fosters a culture that drives both team success and outstanding project results.

Outside of work, you’ll likely find Jake snowboarding, golfing, or exploring classic cars.

Knowing what motivates each coworker is the foundation of thoughtful leadership. Understanding their 'why' requires an intentional investment of your time and effort to get to know them beyond their role. By doing so, you can foster an environment that brings out the best in every individual and maximizes the potential of the entire team.
