Jesse Patton, owner and founder of JP Designs, began tinkering in the garage at a very young age.  Having a love for the desert and an eye for machines, the two together became a hobby for Jesse.  Soon he was saving his money and bought his first dune buggy.  At the age of twelve, Jesse with his dads help bought a buggy that they spent late nights and weekends working in the family garage.  This was Jesse’s first experience with welding.  At the age of fifteen he bought a car of his own that he modified and sold to buy another at sixteen.  He was on his way to building a business without knowing it. Jesse came to find his calling in life as a fabricator.  After building a few frames in the garage he moved into a small space in Santee, at the rear of House of Buggies. A year and a half later he was busting at the seams, so he moved to a bigger shop of 1600 square feet. Moving once more next door to the previous shop to the 3200 square foot shop he is in now.  Jesse looks forward to continuing to grow his business.
