Integrated interior design & drafting services.
INTERIOR DESIGN & DRAFTING
As you learned on Our Approach page the cornerstones of a Highmark home include integrated design & drafting services from start to finish. Experience has taught us not to outsource this mission critical service.

Our full-time design & drafting staff:
Design and Drafting
Kristen Schammel, Interior Designer
Kristen is a highly skilled and talented designer who loves working with clients to bring their spaces to life. She enjoys designing cabinetry, working with tile and selecting countertops and lighting, all of which she uses to bring color and texture into her rooms. Kristen’s knowledge of all phases of design and construction make her an invaluable resource. Kristen holds a B.A. in Interior Design and Construction Management from Mankato State University.
She and husband Tim are parents to two beautiful girls.
Callie Valtakis, Interior Designer
Callie loves helping clients create beautiful homes, as well as understand how design works in their home on an everyday level. She reminds us that our surroundings impact our lives more than we realize, and that wisely imagined surroundings can help us thrive. Callie’s expertise helps Highmark clients enjoy their new homes to the fullest.
In her spare time, Callie enjoys reading, going to plays, bike riding, and spending time with her family, fiancé Jordan and Yorkshire Terrier, Mandie.
Kelly McDermott, Interior Designer
Kelly has been in the interior design field for over 4 years. She has even studied some interior design in France. Kelly loves that every project has its own unique design. When she’s not adding a “wow” factor to our homes, Kelly is out being active with her puppy, Max, or failing at baking a Pinterest recipe at home.
Christina Schulzetenberg,
Christina’s love of color, patterns, and bold texture bring a bright personality to the Highmark team. Her passion for interior design has sparked for as long as she can remember and she enjoys watching a project go from start to finish. This is why she chose to go to the University of Wisconsin- Stout to get a BFA in Interior Design and minor in Business Administration.
In her free time, she enjoys tennis, crafting, traveling, and cooking. She also loves adventuring to the “newest hotspot” in the area to see what it is all about.
Kristen, Callie, Kelly and Christina, seasoned and highly educated interior designers, will prove to be your greatest assets. Whether you are building or remodeling a home, you’ll appreciate the team’s ability to quickly grasp the look you desire. We’ll help you choose the finishes and details that will bring all the pieces of your project together into a breathtaking whole.
