Jayme developed a love for design early in life watching her father, Barry Colyer, build a real estate business. By showing a customer what a home could be, rather than only what it was, he ranked as one of New Jersey’s top realtors year after year. Jayme was by her father’s side as he used his experience in real estate to expand into a successful house flipping business, and inherited her father’s ability to view space in that same manner of “what is possible.” Her father consulted her regularly to help design the layout, features, and fixtures of his flips.

Jayme graduated from Rutgers University and started her career in pharmaceutical sales. She spent a decade in sales in this highly competitive market helping her father as needed on the side. After her father passed in 2012, she realized she wasn’t completely fulfilled. She took a leap and accepted a position at a large banquette fabrication shop which led to an Account/Project Manager position. She managed the Starbucks account and completed well over 100 projects successfully before bowing out to start CN Millwork & Custom Furniture Design.

Ken always enjoyed working with his hands and cut his teeth in the construction trade at a very young age working with his grandfather on residential projects. He attended the University of Vermont to obtain his Bachelor Degree and supported himself during that time by working for GW Savage Construction on everything from demolition, to chem sponging salvageable materials, to framing and build outs, all the way to project completion. After graduating, Ken held a number of sales and customer service positions in the banking, finance, and insurance industries. Through it all he kept his own shop open on the side, working nights and weekends in wood, metal, and acrylics.

After a decade of operating in this manner and experiencing some drastic life changes Ken decided to return full time to the industries he loves. For several years he worked for fabrication and construction companies in purchasing, sales, and project manager roles while fabricating orders from other companies on his down time. This constant grind continued until he and Jayme made the decision to break out and form CN Millwork & Custom Furniture Design.
