David Harris
Managing Principal
David Harris has combined project management and construction experience of over
30 years. Mr. Harris began his career as a certified commercial diver at age eighteen
working in the marine construction industry installing seawalls, pilings and doing
salvage work. In his late twenties Mr. Harris moved primarily from operations in marine
construction, on land, to become a CA licensed general contractor where he built-up a
general contracting company Oracle Builders, specializing in difficult structural
renovations for both commercial and residential properties. As a college trained
draftsman, Mr. Harris worked for an industrial architect on gas-station installations and
other various technical/industrial design projects.
Over time Mr. Harris has produced architectural plan-sets for any number of permits
and projects necessary to develop property for his customers and clients. Eventually,
that permitting activity became a larger volume of time spent developing property for
clients than general contracting, whereas he started Oracle Consulting embarking on a
career as a permit consultant, evolving from 20 years as a general contractor and
project specifier.
