Grace Polzin
What do you love about your career?
What I love about my career is that I get to create every day. Creativity has always felt second nature to me, and working in such an ever-evolving industry fuels my passion for what I do. I get to turn ideas into thoughtful, livable spaces that truly shape how people experience their homes. Collaborating with such a driven, passionate design-build team and seeing our work impact how others live, gather, and feel in the spaces we help create makes it incredibly rewarding.
What are the personal values that drive you?
I’m driven by the belief that if it wasn’t meant for you, you wouldn’t have the opportunity! With that comes a strong sense of accountability—to myself and others—showing up fully, doing things the right way even when the right way takes more time or effort, being as prepared as I can be at any moment, and approaching it all with a kind and empathetic heart.
What advice would you give to others starting in your industry?
Never be afraid to bring new ideas to the table. Fresh perspectives are where innovation begins. Stay curious! Do your research. Find a design niche that inspires you, and use it as a well to draw creativity from.
