Originally from Pennsylvania, Lewis brings nearly 15 years of hands-on construction experience to every project. His approach to building is rooted in traditional craftsmanship, practical problem-solving, and a deep respect for doing things the right way — values formed early and carried through every stage of his career.

What began as a move for work soon became home. Drawn to the mountains and the way of life in Teton Valley, he planted roots and built his career in the region.

In November of 2024, he launched 717 Builders with the goal of delivering honest, high-quality work grounded in proven methods and thoughtful execution. He believes in understanding materials, honoring time-tested techniques, and creating spaces built to last.

Outside of work, he spends his time seeking adventure — riding motorcycles and dirt bikes, jeeping, hunting, woodworking, skiing, and skijoring.
