Jessica

At the center of creative design, structural renovation, and operational leadership at Modern Design & Construction, Inc. is Owner Operator Jessica. Bringing a multifaceted background that spans collegiate athletics, criminal justice education, high-profile HGTV television production, and successful business ownership, Jessica leads the company with a passion for transforming complex renovation concepts into functional, beautiful living spaces. Based in Omaha, Nebraska, Jessica has established Modern Design & Construction as a premier woman-owned remodeling firm dedicated to quality craftsmanship, design innovation, and transparent client communication.

Jessica’s expert capabilities in home remodeling are rooted in a rich, non-traditional career path that blends analytical problem-solving with artistic spatial design. Before establishing her company in Omaha, she owned and operated a successful construction firm in Dallas, Texas, building hands-on field experience in general contracting, sub-contractor management, jobsite safety, and project budgeting. Her deep understanding of residential remodeling allows her to guide clients through every phase of home transformation—from preliminary floor plan layouts and material selection to structural framing, custom finishes, and final interior styling.

From Collegiate Athletics and Criminal Justice to HGTV & DIY Network Production

Born and raised in Omaha, Jessica grew up with strong Midwest values and a competitive athletic drive. Attending Westside High School, softball played a central role in her early life, earning her the opportunity to compete at the collegiate level. She earned her Associate Degree from Iowa Western Community College before transferring to the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV), where she completed her Bachelor's Degree in Criminal Justice. Her academic background in criminal justice honed her skills in research, attention to detail, contract analysis, and systematic problem-solving—traits that directly enhance her approach to managing complex construction projects and client contracts today.

Following her university studies, Jessica’s career took an exciting turn into media and television production. For several years, she worked as a producer on hit home improvement shows for HGTV and the DIY Network. Working behind the scenes alongside top-tier architects, interior designers, structural engineers, and master tradespeople across the country, Jessica gained extraordinary insight into creative spatial planning, fast-paced build schedules, and high-end aesthetic finishes. This television experience transformed her emerging interest in home renovation into a lifelong passion for architectural design and high-quality residential construction.

Building an Omaha Woman-Owned Construction Firm Rooted in Honesty and Quality

After building a successful contracting business in Texas, Jessica returned home to Omaha to launch a local company built around honesty, craftsmanship, and a client-centered remodeling experience. As a woman-owned business owner in a traditionally male-dominated industry, Jessica brings an empathetic, detail-oriented perspective to every project. She understands that a home renovation is a deeply personal journey for property owners, requiring clear expectations, structured timelines, and uncompromised respect for the client's space and budget.

Under Jessica’s leadership, Modern Design & Construction, Inc. handles a wide array of residential remodeling projects, including complete kitchen overhauls, luxury bathroom transformations, basement finishing, and whole-home reconfigurations. Jessica works directly with clients to blend form and function, ensuring that every design choice not only elevates the home's aesthetic appeal but also improves daily livability. Her hands-on management approach guarantees that every project is executed with structural integrity and fine-tuned precision from start to finish.

Active Midwest Lifestyle, Travel Enthusiast, and Family Dedication

Outside of managing jobsite logistics, reviewing architectural plans, and working directly with clients, Jessica maintains an active, healthy, and family-oriented lifestyle. She is an avid traveler who loves exploring new destinations, experiencing diverse architectural styles, and immersing herself in different cultures—experiences that continually inspire her design work.

Jessica also enjoys staying fit and working out, spending time outdoors camping, and enjoying quality time with her close family and friends in the Omaha area. Her grounded, approachable personality and strong Midwest roots shape her client relationships, making the remodeling process collaborative, enjoyable, and completely transparent for every homeowner she serves.
