Who Are We
Small Fish Drafting LLC was founded by Jeremiah Ward in 2004. His passion for architecture began at an early age and was kindled by his father who was a building inspector and plans examiner for the City of Scottsdale. He began to sharpen his pencil throughout high school and started designing houses on paper. He soon transitioned to Computer Aided Drafting (CAD) and taught himself the basics. He attended Glendale Community College where he majored in Architecture. He worked for an architectural firm for several months but struggled being an entrepreneur in a cubical. He started his own company with just a handful of projects and felt like a "small fish in a big pond". The name stuck and all though Small Fish Drafting is not so small anymore, he has not forgotten his roots and the small projects that made Small Fish Drafting what it is today. That is why we still tackle the carport conversion and small additions.
​
We strive to make the process of getting a permit as painless as possible. The daunting stacks of paperwork, building codes and regulations can be overwhelming. That is why we handle your entire project from design to permit. Contact us to see how we can help you.
