At age five my mom enrolled me into art classes, and that’s when I knew I wanted to have a career that would allow my creativity to run wild! I recently made a career change that is allowing me to do just that. I work for Selkirk Construction as a project coordinator and interior designer. I guide clients through the entire build process. My main goal is to help them convey their vision into reality. I’m a wealth of knowledge with a Bachelors of Interior Design and 10 years under my belt with Sherwin-Williams. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions regarding our build process. I can be reached at (208) 660-8917 or heidi@selkirkconstruction.com.
