JD DeForge, P.E.

I’m a civil engineer that focuses on land development. I have 15 years of experience from working on a survey crew as a rodman to managing large scale projects. I’ve worked on both large scale and small scale projects ranging from residential to commercial. My approach to a successful project centers on understanding the client’s needs and delivering cost-effective solutions. Over the years, I’ve built strong working relationships with my clients and governmental agencies which has helped me successfully complete projects efficiently and on time. Engineering’s rich history and its ability to leave a lasting impact on communities is what drew me to this field. I’m passionate about shaping the physical landscape of where we live, work, and play.

I’ve worked on complex stormwater management systems from large golf course conversions to golf course communities and local regional parks. I believe I’ve had a positive impact on all the projects I’ve worked including Fiddler’s Creek, Manatee Cove, Caloosa Cove, and the Golden Gate Golf Course. These communities included a multitude of smaller community improvements including clubhouse sites, amenity sites (i.e. tennis courts, pickleball courts, pool areas, dog parks, etc.), commercial shopping plazas, and residential neighborhoods ranging from large estate homes to multi-unit buildings.

As a lifelong Floridian, Naples native, and current Bonita Springs resident, I enjoy spending time with my family. The center of my life outside of work is my wife who happens to my best friend, our 3 children, and our dog Charlie Bear. We love being together outdoors, whether it’s enjoying the beach, paddleboarding, or watching a baseball game.
