DJ Zehnacker – Principal, Civil Engineer

“I strive to provide fully integrated civil engineering and land surveying that compliments the architectural,landscape, and aesthetic characteristics of a project, while providing a long term design solution to grading,drainage, utility, and site design.

Almost everything you see outside the walls of a building, either on the ground or below the ground, we design!”

D.J. brings an egoless style of management to a project. His style of leadership and project management allows the project team the ability to function in whatever manner is most effective for the success and economic viability of a project.

DJ has been a competitive mountain biker, and shares his home with his soccer-professional wife, a son, a yellow lab, and a cat.
