Founded in 2014 by Jennifer & Chris Owens, Plum Creek Consulting was formed as a small, woman-owned business that works to serve the civil engineering and construction consulting needs in the real estate community.
We provide due diligence, entitlement, land planning, site/civil design, infrastructure, permitting, and construction management services. We also procure and lead other sub-disciplines as needed to accomplish our client’s goals.
Jennifer has worked for both large and small general contractors throughout her career, and has held positions at every level of general contracting, pre-construction and estimating, operations, and closeout.
Chris has worked in a variety of engineering practices, from very small organizations to the world’s largest. This experience has afforded him the ability to work on a variety of project types and sizes.
