Meet the Team

FOUNDER & PRESIDENT

Jake founded Momentum Customs to merge an exceptional homebuilding process with an equally exceptional product. Raised in Bozeman, his building career began at 12, sweeping jobsite floors for his family’s construction business. Over the years, he’s taken on roles from Superintendent on complex multi-family projects to Project Manager on bespoke mountain retreats. His expertise, relentless work ethic, and commitment to quality have made him a trusted name in luxury home building across Southwest Montana and beyond.

A dynamic entrepreneur, Jake scaled Momentum Customs and Momentum Development to an eight-figure business in under three years, empowering his team to grow as professionals along the way. He also serves as President of the Southwest Montana Building Industry Association (SWMBIA) and is a Certified Green Professional (CGP).

Outside of work, Jake enjoys mountain biking, wakeboarding, and traveling with his wife, Makenzie, and daughter, Brooklyn.

SUPERINTENDENT

The son of a builder, Paul was immersed in the construction industry from as early as he can remember—on job sites by seven, landscaping and building decks as a teen, and working on masonry and framing crews through his 20s. Now, he manages bespoke residential home builds with a BA in Business from the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse and years of hands-on experience. Paul understands every facet of home building, from constructability to building trust with clients, partners, and team members. His enthusiasm, collaborative mindset, and focus on safety ensure smooth, enjoyable, and secure projects.

Outside of work, Paul is an avid outdoorsman, spending his time hunting, skiing, fly fishing, and exploring the great outdoors with family, friends, and his pup by his side.
