Avant de rejoindre J.S. Held, Heidi a travaillé dans la vente et le service à la clientèle pour des compagnies d'assurance pour particuliers et entreprises. She began her insurance career working for a broker as a commercial lines policy assistant, preparing certificates of insurance and assisting with policy qualification. After a few months in this role, Heidi made the decision to change her path and pursue her California Property and Casualty Insurance License. Une fois son diplôme obtenu, Heidi est devenue commerciale durant les cinq années suivantes de sa carrière.
Après avoir travaillé dans le secteur de l'assurance commerciale, elle a occupé le poste de directrice adjointe pour une société de prévention des dommages en excavation au Nouveau-Mexique. Son expérience dans ces domaines a renforcé ses connaissances en assurance, ses aptitudes à s'exprimer en public, ses capacités de formation et son efficacité dans la gestion de projet. Additionally, she was able to leverage her understanding of building components to obtain her Water Restoration Technician certification from the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning, and Restoration Certification (IICRC).
In 2016, Heidi moved back to her hometown of Wildomar, California, to be closer to her family. During her job search, she came across a temporary administrative assistant position for a construction consulting company (J.S. Held) with an office in Temecula, located just south of Wildomar. Heidi a postulé à ce poste et a été engagée afin d'apporter son aide alors qu'une autre employée se trouvait en congé maternité pour trois mois. Her eagerness to contribute and interest in the consulting industry ultimately provided her with an opportunity to begin training as a consultant in 2017, following the completion of her temporary position. Heidi soon began working with senior project managers on large, complex claims for apartment complexes, commercial buildings, hotels, and residential properties due to fire, water, and storm damage.
In 2018, Heidi began working on renewable energy claims on solar and wind farms with several established clients. As the renewable energy industry continued to expand rapidly over the next four years, the number of claims also increased. In January 2022, the J.S. Held Renewable Energy Department, a sub-practice of the Building Consulting division, was established with two members - Heidi and her manager, Timothy Dowden.
In 2023, looking for a change of seasons, Heidi purchased her dream Tudor Revival home in Spokane Valley, WA. Today, Heidi continues as one of the key leaders in the Renewable Energy department, providing claims and litigation support, as well as regularly presenting at leading renewable energy industry events.
Heidi is recognized for her expertise in claims project management and cost analysis. She has worked on a variety of complex matters, including solar energy, wind turbines, and battery storage projects across the USA and Canada. La possibilité de résoudre chaque jour des défis uniques tout en travaillant avec une équipe de collègues partageant la même vision est ce qu'Heidi préfère dans son poste chez J.S. Held.
Heidi's passion for being a consultant is derived from her natural desire to help people. She is compassionate and understanding in times of adversity, embracing every assignment with the same level of attention, regardless of its intricacies. Heidi views challenge as "an extraordinary chance to make an impact," which is an integral part of what makes her successful.
Away from work, Heidi enjoys living life to the fullest in “The Evergreen State.” She can be found paddleboarding on a local lake, conquering home renovation projects, or seeking out the best local coffee roaster.
"Whether it is a quick cup of coffee or an extended conversation, spending quality time with friends and family is what fulfills me."
