Vulcan Leadership
Jamie Doering
Owner
Jamie is one of our owners here at Vulcan Design & Construction.
Jamie served 12 years in the Marine Corps in both reserve and active duty capacities where he reached the rank of Staff Sergeant. During his career, his team won several awards for the best in their field. He deployed in 2008 to Djibouti, Africa as a part of Operation Enduring Freedom.
During his reserve years, Jamie spent his days becoming a Journeymen Carpenter and worked on several of the high rise buildings you see in downtown Portland today! With over 15 years of experience, he has built a vast base of knowledge in both Residential Remodeling and Commercial Construction. After many years in the business, Jamie and Eric decided to open their own company, Vulcan Design & Construction, Inc. so that they could offer their clients the best service and quality, and know that they could back it up.

Owner
Eric is one of the owners at Vulcan Design & Construction.

Paul
Design Consultant
Paul began mowing lawns around his SE Portland neighborhood even before he could drive, so it was fitting that for his first vehicle he purchased an old GMC Pickup for $700. This helped him start a small local business where he learned firsthand about recycling, hauling, and hard work.
The business was fittingly named “Call Paul and Haul” which he would operate on the weekends in high school and during the summer to earn money for college. He also took on piecemeal work for masons and a remodeling contractor. Through these endeavors, he was always eager to learn and gain knowledge by firsthand experience which was always important to him. After college he found outdoor construction and landscape design to be a natural fit for his many interests which he had expanded on by taking a variety of classes. Of course, he has also always loved trucks, tools, and heavy equipment, so when it came time to invest in a business the idea, envisioning himself as a design-build contractor was a natural fit.
It is with an array of experiences that Paul joins the Vulcan Team. Whether it be managing the installation of a large commercial project or designing outdoor living rooms and water features, Paul does his best to bring his passion, vision, and experience to create and improve everything he is a part of. In his off time, he enjoys going on hikes, and drives and exploring the pacific northwest with his girlfriend, and spending time with friends and family.

Penny
Canine Intern
Penny is currently interning with us and learning the ropes from Lady & Abby. She’s easy to love/hate with her perfectly shiny air-dried to perfection hair and effortless photogenic qualities. Her favorite pastimes include Googling “Famous Penny’s” even though it mostly yields pics of old coin collections and shopping in Oregon so when she pays $9.99 cents for something she always gets a penny back. Currently, she still lives with her parents and older sister but hopes all that will change once she lands her first big corporate gig.
