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.

Jamie enjoyed Rugby in his College & Marine Corps days. Nowadays he loves getting out on the boat, spending time with his family, and playing with his pup.

Eric Doering

Owner

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

Eric joined the U.S. Marine Corps out of high school. He achieved the rank of Staff Sergeant in his 13-year tenure and was stationed in Oregon, California, North Carolina, and Florida. He deployed in 2008 to Djibouti Africa (with his brother) in support of Operation Enduring Freedom, then in 2014 to Kuwait, and again to Qatar in 2015 as part of the Combined Joint Interagency Task Force on Syria. After starting Vulcan Design with his brother and having his first child with his beautiful wife (Audrey), he decided it was time to hang up the uniform.

When Eric isn’t working, he spends time with his adventurous wife Audrey, their two beautiful daughters, and the family dog (Lady). They love taking drives, spending the weekend at the beach, and being outdoors whenever they can (especially on the river)! Eric was the Team Captain of his Rugby Club and enjoyed playing rugby for 14 years with clubs in Portland, Jacksonville NC, Djibouti Africa, and even the All-Marine Rugby Team.

Stu

Design Consultant

Small town born and raised, Stuart learned the value of relationships, creativity, and service-focused hard work.  In pursuit of an education in Biology and Science, our friendly city of bridges, breweries, and animal lovers quickly became home.

Stuart brings nearly 6 years of experience in the construction and home improvement industry and still finds fascination with the opportunities at every home.  Previous experience as Operations Manager of a 5-restaurant chain, has taught him management and organization.  These skills have proved to be valuable in overseeing the many details involved in the construction process from small to large-scale projects.

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.
