Jesus Dorantes
Project Accountant
A Washington native with a Sociology degree from Washington State University, Jesus left the real estate industry for a career in construction. He loves all things media: film, TV, video games, and music. He makes a point of attending at least five concerts every year! He volunteers for local food banks and with Vote Save America, registering people to vote. Jesus says his favorite part of the job is observing how everyone works together to create amazing buildings in the Puget Sound Region.
Danielle Sessler
Senior Project Manager
Associate DBIA™
Construction was always part of the plan for Northwest native Danielle, having grown up in a family that owned a contracting business. She took a few detours first, earning a BFA in Metalsmithing and Art History from Central Washington University and working as a Senior Estimator focused on honing her preconstruction services skills. When she landed at GLY in 2013, we quickly recognized her background would be perfect for Design-Build projects. Outside of work, Danielle enjoys hiking, bouldering, climbing—and collecting “odd things that most people scratch their heads over.”
