Meet the Team
Jim Royer, Owner
Jim Royer has over 30 years of experience in construction and development with 20 of those years as founding principal of J Development Company. He leads the company and his team with honesty as a driving force. Jim’s extensive knowledge of construction intricacies has been vital to meeting project deadlines, budgets, and the overall success of many projects. His nuanced understanding of zoning, contracting, project management, and state and city ordinances have allowed J Development Company to succeed and grow in many directions. While the company's project list is long, completion of the Stephen Center HERO building is a career highlight that led to incredible ongoing projects with innovative, vital non-profits. When not doing what he loves professionally, Jim likes to spend time with family, cooking and grilling. Fishing is a hobby he’s enjoyed with his dad since he was a child, and now continues the tradition with his kids and grandkids.
Jeana Matcha, Director of Operations
Jeana Matcha loves being a part of the J Development Company team, and has been an integral part of the company since 2009. She manages the office, and supports all that’s needed to see their projects come to life, from idea to execution and everything in-between. When away from work, Jeana is spending time with her husband and son, and often playing volleyball or fishing. She looks forward to fishing trips with her father every year.
