We started this company in 2006 after graduating from Colorado State University with degrees in Construction Management and Business. Since then, our company has grown through hard work, honesty, and unparalleled commitment to our customers. With roots in the mile-high city, we specialize in residential exteriors that stand up to the harshest climates. When we started out, we were installing windows ourselves - learning each and every product first-hand and understanding the intricacies of each type of product. We’ve grown our sales team, project managers, and installers with the same dedication to detail. Over the last 12 years, we’ve been fortunate enough to work on over 3,000 projects - including the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, Colorado.

Your Evergreen Chamber wants to hear about those women who have made an impact on our community. Each year, we host a Women in Business luncheon during which we induct a few women into the Mountain Area Women in Business Hall of Fame. Nominations are open for women in our community who have had a measurable impact through their work, their volunteerism and their willingness to adventure out for the bene t of others. Often these women do for others quietly, so we ask for your assistance in highlighting all that they have accomplished. Please email me at president@evergreenchamber.org to bring them to our attention.

“Those who are happiest are those who do the most for others.” Booker T. Washington

Both are part of the Olympics.

Jaxon excels at his profession because of his attention to detail.

“He will hammer out details until everyone else in the room wants to go home,” Tom Statzell said. “He is fortunate that he (works) for a firm that is as obsessive as he is.”

While creativity is important, “the nuts and bolts is that it’s a lot of grinding it out — making sure it can be built to the right specifications. I think he has a special talent for it,” Tom Statzell added.

Creating a skate park — especially for something as elite as the Olympics — means going into what Jaxon called “video game mode” where designers put themselves in the minds of the top athletes to create features, explaining that skateboarding has a mind of its own.

“It evolves constantly and changes,” he said. “(Skaters) keep advancing and do more and more. I don’t think (park designers) can dictate what (the sport) is going to do. We can help it and move with it because it moves really fast.”

Doing what he loves

Skateboarding is not just his job — Jaxon still gets to a skate park several times a week, and he was able to take a few runs on both Olympic courses, though he admits he doesn’t try death-defying tricks.

“I am pretty risk averse these days,” he said. “I can skate within my means.”

Sometimes Jaxon can`t believe he’s working in the field that he loves.

“I think the 15-, 16-year-old me would high-5 me now and be like, “YES,” Jaxon said.

Skateboarding is seen by some as not requiring discipline, but he said there’s a lot of life lessons.

“It’s about getting back up after you fall and following the learning curve that is really steep,” he said, noting that having parents who were “open minded enough to allow me to be myself” was helpful. “I feel very grateful and lucky to be doing what I’m doing.”
