First with IDG but was relevant with Grimm+Parker as well, Jason performed production of various project types and at various levels of completion to meet aggressive deadlines due to staffing needs. Supported the Project Manager's on understaffed projects by self-performing or assisting the team on development drawing sets for Pricing, Permit and Funding submissions., Design Development pricing set and Construction Documents / Permit Submission level. Performed QA/QC reviews on sets at Schematic Design, Design Development and Construction Document phases. Then worked with the PMs on strategies for completion based on staffing needs on various multi-family projects. Project to convert 5 historic (touching) buildings into mixed-use project that connected the upper floors for residential use. Project ultimately came in on time and under budget after active participation and leadership pulled in for assistance.

These positions were known to be potential temporary basis due to workload and uncertainty due to my experience and role needed, which I was production based. Jason happily took these positions on to build back production skills in Revit as he spent the past 10 years in a PM role using the software for those roles expectations due to billing rates.

Hired as the first full-time employee after the 2009 downturn, this (7) year portion of Jason's career was by far the most influential towards his growth professionally.

Eagerly and with a ton of passion Jason provided responsibilities from cleaning the restrooms to cutting the ribbon with the mayor of Nashville for the Ascend Amphitheater. Many late nights, wins and losses later, Jason truly owes the Smith Gee crew who mentored him to be the designer, planner, and business mind he is today.

SUCCESS STORY

Project: Cummins Station - Architect: Smith Gee Studio - Location: Nashville, TN (01/2011 - 08/2018) Upon becoming the owner of the Cummins Station and Baggage Building, DZL Management sought to transform the 100+ year old structures into the most unique office community in downtown Nashville. As project manager, Jason was the lead architect for all ongoing building renovation projects and have successfully worked with the client to transform the properties into one of downtowns most sought-after office locations. Occupancy has increased to nearly 97% and average rent rates continue to climb in an increasingly competitive office space market. New modern entry lobbies, corridor renovations, restrooms, elevators, art studios and gallery, and a rare urban Community Garden, recognized by AIA Middle Tennessee, AIA Tennessee (state) and the American Society of Landscape Architects, have completely converted Cummins Station’s image, attracting some of Nashville’s most entrepreneurial companies.
