360 Painting of Rocky Mountains was started by Brent Duncan after working as a geologist around the world. His wife Katie, supports Brent and the business while also working as a published author. Their three children are in high school and college and are the reason Brent and Katie started this business. Together, along with our exceptional crews and staff, we strive to make 360 Painting the most trustworthy, responsive, and positive service experience for each and every client.

We focus ourselves on these three core values:

• Quality – Every 360° Painting location measures its results against exacting and uncompromising quality standards. We distinguish ourselves from other painting companies through our use of premium paints, high-quality finishes, and proven painting methods. Our painters work carefully and meticulously to ensure a smooth, flawless, eye-catching finish on every project.
• Professionalism – At 360° Painting, we know how inconvenient it can be to have a stranger painting your home or business. Our painting company is committed to professional and responsive painting services. Our painters will help coordinate and plan your project, will treat your property with the utmost respect, and will ensure your project is completed in a timely manner.
• Service – Your satisfaction is our painting company’s number one priority. Before laying a single brushstroke, we will make sure that we understand your vision for your home or business, and we will do all that we can to make that vision a reality. We do not consider work complete until you’ve voiced your full satisfaction. We also spend hours donating our time and abilities to our local community for the benefit of everyone.

More info:
Born in Florida but my heart always wanted to live somewhere that actually had a winter season so I moved out here in 2015. After graduating college, serving in the Navy, and moving out West I worked for a retirement planning company for 7 years only to realize I really didn't like working for someone else. So, in 2022 I left that company and became an Independent Agent. Since then, my life has been a whirlwind of community engagement, networking events, marketing opportunities and creating a real name for myself that means something.

How long have you been in the Chamber?
I joined the Chamber in March of 2024. I wish I had joined sooner!

I grew up in Denver and now live in Arvada with my husband and two kids, ages 11 and 13. I own Tribe Mind Body Wellness, a counseling practice with locations in Arvada and Lakewood and co-host a podcast called SoulStirred. I love traveling the world—in 2024, I explored Japan and Belize. My life is full of things I once said I’d never do, but they’ve turned out to enrich it in the best ways. Also, I like to think I know what dogs are saying—they’re great conversationalists!

Jackie was a business consultant for years, taking companies and building them up and making them successful. She even ran her own consulting firm, Jackie Meyer Consulting, and was doing rather well for herself.

Then, one day, she was — quite literally, and metaphorically as well — struck by a need for change.

After an accident that left her unable to work, she struggled to find something that fulfilled her as much as helping others did. And then she realized, she could still help others, just in a different way.

Jackie has done Shamanic and intuitive readings for people for the last 20 years, for both personal and business decisions. After the accident, she decided to take tarot lessons from Denver-based, internationally-known Psychic Reader and Medium Rick Finbow, so she could expand her Psychic abilities and use her 40+ years of skills and experiences to continue to help people.

Even during her time being a business consultant, Jackie felt the call to spirituality. She was sent to Lima, Peru to reorganize an entire call center of 62 people and increase their productivity. Using her natural and trained intuition, she formulated three questions that have since continued to guide her through her journey since then: 

What do you like about your job?

What do you not like about your job?

What would you like to see changed?

Jackie has learned that by asking these 3 questions, people feel heard and appreciated.

Jackie’s always had a talent for helping people reach their fullest potential, through intuition and guidance.
