  • Jaynie is easy to work with, does what she says she'll do and follows things through. She understands the realities of running a construction business and gets stuff done, which frees me up to focus on running the business.

Hey, I’m Jaynie.

I'm an average (sometimes) surfer. I love the beach, sunshine and my family. I laugh and sneeze loud, and I'm a bit of a nerd when it comes to business.

I genuinely enjoy understanding why one construction business thrives while another, with just as much talent, struggles to get ahead. Finding the gaps, creating structure and helping businesses become more profitable is what gets me out of bed each morning.
