Jacob Hunter’s Experience

Principal Consultant

Environmental Assessment Services

(Privately Held; Environmental Services industry)

June 2005 — Present (4 years 6 months)

Parlaying my prior experiences and training in restoration, remediation and abatement, I started EAS as a premier Indoor Air Quality and restoration consulting firm. We specialize in Asbestos, Mold and Thermal Imaging.

The business plan for EAS originated and evolved from a software package by DryStandard. I was heavily involved in field testing and advisory of the product from a market standpoint. By early 2006 EAS evolved to become a premier IAQ Consulting firm.

Use of new technologies (BioTrace, Thermal Imaging, QPCR, DryStandard) have always played a key role at EAS. We aim to set the standard in our industry. We provide third party estimates for insurance adjusters using Xactimate 25.

On a contract basis I provided project estimation and management for disaster recovery services at ATI. I supervised and directed all personnel assigned to my project. I followed a project from initial response through certificate of completion. I acted as the single point of contact for the client and the claims adjuster.

As part of my position I was responsible for development and maintenance of all of my contacts, and developing the office's regular insurance clientele.
