Shelby Gustafson's Got the "Gusto" For All Things Design

Shelby is a North Dakota native from Mandan (the better side of the river). She graduated from Northland Community & Technical College and was the winner of the Forx Builders Association & NC&TC Project House Design contest in which she perfected a rambler home, eventually built in East Grand Forks. Shelby has been with Thomsen for two years now and has grown from Design Specialist Assistant to a Design Specialist, meaning she now takes on her own clients and helps them with decisions throughout the build. She has an awesome way of connecting with clients and will make sure your build is exciting and unforgettable. Get know Shelby some more below!
