Douglas graduated from Hope College in 1993 with a degree in business
and economics and earned a masters degree in accounting from Western
Michigan University in 1995. He obtained his CPA license and worked
for BDO Seidman, a national accounting firm, both in the Chicago
office and Grand Rapids office. Although he enjoyed working on high
profile clients such as Alticor, Steelcase, and Blackwater USA, he
decided to pursue his first interest, building and construction. Doug
worked for a local builder learning the art of being a general contractor.
Douglas brings valuable administrative, sales, and estimating
experience to Cutting Edge Builders. He considers himself a life long
learner and has obtained the most professional designations through
the National Home Builders Association of any builder in West
Michigan. He also holds a Michigan real estate license.
