About Us

Open Air Concepts is more than a remodeling company

nikki-jake

—it's a small group of craftsman who take pride in exceptional carpentry with a strong sense of professionalism.

Started by Jake and Nikki Nau, the company is known for its attention to detail and flexible, experienced team. Here's a look at the people who put that commitment to work:

 

Jake Nau

Jake Nau has been in the remodeling business for over 15 years. He takes pride in making the remodeling process smooth, and the finished project exquisite for every one of his clients. Jake enjoys researching the latest in building science and brings his knowledge to each of the projects he coordinates. His interest in sustainable building coincides with his love for the outdoors. In his 'spare time', he enjoys fishing, hiking, woodworking, and playing with his children.

Kathy Windels

Kathy Windels has an extensive marketing background in the commercial real estate industry. She has developed and implemented many marketing plans for the Twin Cities' most recognizable projects including: The Best Buy Corporate Campus, The Shoppes at Arbor Lakes, Woodbury Lakes, Grant Park and Grandview Square, to name a few. Recently finishing her MBA at The University of St. Thomas, her focus is now on working to help Open Air Concepts communicate their sustainable building mission, something that she personally believes in.

Nikki Nau

Nikki Nau has combined her background in environmental science and business development as she co-operates Open Air Concepts. She earned a BS in Environmental Studies and Natural Resources which lead her to organic vegetable farming for a number of years before starting Open Air Concepts. She realizes the importance of renovating existing buildings to reduce their energy consumption and carbon footprint, and feels proud to promote a business that fits with her values and beliefs. Nikki enjoys most of her days gardening, cooking, and crafting with her children.

Dan Hastert

Dan Hastert joined Open Air Concepts because he takes pride in "the professionalism shown toward the homeowner." Working with clients to achieve their remodeling dreams adds to his sense of accomplishment.
