- DUDanylle UtleyDanylle Utley Project Accounting Manager has been with Jacobsen Construction for over 24 years. From the early years as a payroll clerk, elevating the role of the project accountant, or taking a turn in the field as a cost engineer, protecting the financial bottom line has been at the forefront of Danylle's career at Jacobsen. Danylle helps to bridge the gap between field operations and corporate accounting as the subject matter expert for Jacobsen's Cost Management Integration. Danylle's unique laugh can be heard throughout the building as she collaborates with estimators, project managers, accountants and executives during monthly financial reviews or during Autodesk Cost Management training sessions. When Danylle has time away from reconciling data, she can be found sitting in the car listening to podcasts, avoiding household chores, and hoping her family already has dinner on the table.
