Canadian native and founder of Paradise Drafting John Yeo began his architectural journey after graduating from Ryerson Polytechnic University in Toronto, where he gained experience in designing for both residential and commercial buildings. He then transitioned to designing Victorian style houses in 1987 for four years before moving to work for a large bank in Canada to help construct branches and office fit outs for their branches.
John moved to Cayman in 1997 with his wife and started working at OBM international, where he worked for just over 7 years on a whole range of projects from luxury homes to hurricane shelters, schools, and multi-story office buildings.
