Raised on a farm in Fairmont, Minnesota, Heidi is the middle of five children. She moved to Sioux Falls in 1998 to attend school. In 1999, she began a 23-year career at Sanford Health Hospital working in positions including management, training, and human resources. She completed her Bachelor of Psychology degree from Colorado Christian University in September 2013. Heidi and Mike married on February 14, 2014, and she blended with Mike and his three children, two of which are married, with all of them living in the area. Mike and Heidi count it an absolute joy to be grandparents to four grandkids, all boys. In 2019 Mike and Heidi started a house flipping business, and in 2022 she joined Mike in this business full-time.
Raised in a Christian home, Heidi recalls accepting Jesus as her personal Savior at Lake Beauty Bible Camp when she was around 8 years old. In high school, she deepened her personal relationship with Jesus and was active in her church youth group. She did a short-term mission trip to Mexico and a long-term discipleship training and mission trip to Thailand following her high school graduation. A few years later, she began to wrestle with God and her purpose, turning from God for several years to live her own way. But praise God for a family that prays! In 2009 Heidi rededicated her life to Christ and has not stopped pursuing Him and His will for her life.
Heidi started attending Faith Baptist in 2017. She was baptized and became a member in 2018. She has served in a variety of areas including nursery, choir, and church decorating. She has enjoyed learning about Jesus and getting to know other women through the women's bible studies. In December of 2024 she joined the staff as Director of Operations.
Heidi enjoys spending time with family and friends especially one on one time together. She enjoys going for walks, being outdoors, and searching antique stores for fun finds.
