Jim grew up with Blois Construction, Inc.®, literally learning the business from the ground up and around the dinner table. After graduating from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo with a degree in Civil Engineering, he gained outside experience at other underground utility companies in California before returning to his natural home. Jim works with the Blois Team to develop company wide expectations, systems and procedures and to utilize technology. Most importantly, he spends the majority of his time in strategic planning, finding and developing great people and maintaining a culture of collaboration and learning.
