As President of Desert Star Construction, Jerry is honored to lead what has been defined as “the best team in the luxury home business.” He is known for building great teams and constructing the most complicated custom luxury projects by putting people before profits. The combined sales revenue of DSC clients’ companies is in excess of $3.6 trillion dollars and growing.Desert Star Construction was born with a focus on excellence and integrity, advancing from the construction and remodel jobs “no one else wanted” to becoming an award-winning landmark commodity that regularly completes Arizona’s most prestigious Personal Resorts®. The last decade has been focused on continuous growth and expansion of the DSC brand, leading to the creation of Desert Star Concierge® in 2015, a proactive maintenance company for DSC built projects as well as homes built by others. Today’s DSC has grown from its foundation starting with a Skil-Saw and a cord to having $170mm of work in progress. In the process, DSC's results have been published in more than 30 magazines and earned honors such as multiple Gold Nugget Awards, Phoenix Home & Garden Home of the Year, Southwest Contractor, and NAHB Custom Home of the Year. In 2017, Jerry was the first-ever luxury custom home builder to receive Phoenix Home & Garden's Master of the Southwest, an award program in its 27th year that recognizes the best in design and craftsmanship.What means the most to Jerry is the relationships he has built with his clients and teams. Community involvement has been a wonderful byproduct of these relationships with great opportunities to assist others. One such rewarding accomplishment was being the founding president of the Phoenix Dream Center Foundation. In this role, Team DSC® received the Heart of Business Award and Community Spirit Award for building a new commercial kitchen that has since served over 5.5 million meals to individuals in addiction recovery, human trafficking, and foster care programs.
