I started Doak Design in 2006 when I graduated from Kirkwood Community College in Cedar Rapids, IA. I began doing little projects here and there while I began my professional career designing custom in-ground swimming pools, spas & water features, then went on to work for a design/build home building firm in Ames, until I finally took my business full time in 2011, taking on several main clients whom I still work with today.

 

My primary focus for Doak Design is to provide custom residential and small commercial design services to homeowners, contractors and developers -- however -- remodels, additions, drafting services and 3d modeling are still very much a good part of my business.

 

My philosophy is simple: provide the best possible service tailored to each client's needs, doing so in a timely and professional manner, while maintaining a good professional relationship with all my clients.

 

I'm proud of my work history, starting with being the honor graduate in my class, working with designing swimming pools for major casino's, hotels and residences here in Iowa and outside the state, working with dozens of homeowners to design their homes, and being a part of all the projects I've done with other clients at the Iowa State Fairgrounds and Blank Park Zoo. I love and enjoy what I do and I believe it shows in my work.
