Jeremy was born in Montana and moved to North Idaho at a very early age. He was raised in the Idaho Panhandle where he currently resides. Before starting his own company, Jeremy worked as an operator in the electrical utility division and underground construction for 12 years and was eventually promoted to general manager.

Utilizing the skills and experiences he gained during 1993-2004, Jeremy founded Big Sky Development in 2004 and incorporated the business in 2005. Originally Big Sky was primarily involved with land acquisition and development, constructing subdivisions and selling as whole projects to various home builders. Due to the poor economy in the real estate market throughout 2007-2008, Big Sky Development was revamped and branched out in other areas in the construction industry, specifically public works contracting in the utility division, including water, sewer, waste water and storm water projects. Since then, the business continues to grow and evolve into a successful company and offers many services as a general contractor.

Jeremy is very committed to quality and efficiency, as well as professionalism, business ethics and having a positive working atmosphere.

Steve has had 15+ years of relevant experience specializing in large diameter utility construction, heavy-road construction, grading and site remediation.  His overall experience also includes 10+ years of public works contracting projects.  As a construction project manager, he has been successful in problem solving, organization of project schedules, keeping accurate record drawings and implementing specifications of each project, site inspections, preparing reports and documentation.
