OUR TEAM
Joe Kelly
Hi, My name is Joe Kelly. I am a native Oregonian, an outdoor enthusiast, and I love to snowboard. On weekends you’ll find me exploring the great outdoors with good friends and my 2 huskies.
In 2012, after several years of working as a professional painter, I took a leap of faith and decided to open my own business, JK Paint & Contracting. I started the business with some simple core values: be the friendliest and most honest painters around, use high quality paints and paint products, and be the easiest Painting contractors to work with by providing clear and friendly communications and a detailed scope of work. Adhering to this simple philosophy has earned JK Paint & Contracting a 5-star reputation as a trusted painting contractor in the Portland-Metropolitan area. JK Paint & Contracting continues to grow each year and employs multiple crews and office staff to support clients with their largest and smallest residential and commercial painting needs. Everyone on the JK Paint team understands there is nothing more valuable to their future and the future of JK Paint & Contracting than completing a project and having happy customers that will feel confident referring JK Paint & Contracting to their family and friends.
Isabel Kelly
Hi, my name is Isabel Kelly. I started working for JK Paint & Contracting in 2017 as the Office Manager. My role is to handle the administrative tasks as well as photograph our projects. I have heard many people say it is hard to work with family, but for me working with my brother, Joe, has brought us even closer together. When I am not at work I enjoy spending time with my family, walking my dogs at Champoeg State Park, running, and reading a good book.
Davis Kitchens
Hi, My name is Davis Kitchens. I am the project estimator at JK Paint & Contracting. I enjoy meeting with our potential clients and learning about their project, answering any questions they may have, and then preparing them a fair and honest quote. Before stepping into the role of estimator I was a painter for JK Paint. In my free time I enjoy cooking, driving my Honda S2000, and playing sports.
Carlos Aguilar
Hi, my name is Carlos Aguilar. I am a project manager at JK Paint & Contracting. I began my career with the JK Paint & Contracting team in 2013 when I was hired on as Joe’s first employee. I have grown along with the company starting as a Painter, promoted to Crew Leader and now to my current position as Project Manager. When I am not at work you will find me fishing, woodworking, or spending quality time with my wife of seven years, Teresa.

Hi, my name is Adan Olvera. I am one of the project managers at JK Paint & Contracting. I have been with JK Paint since 2019 and was added to the management team in February 2020.
