Create - Collaborate - Construct
We’re a highly experienced and deeply passionate team that embraces the entire process of designing and building spaces. We’re inspired by our clients’ expertise, culture, and vision, and we create environments that reflect their values.

About us
Yellowstone Integrated Architecture and Construction’s roots date back to 1992, and our new leadership team has both robust past experience and an eye to the future. Our company exists to serve the changing architecture, design, and construction needs of organizations throughout the Midwest.
The Yellowstone team is built on an integrated approach to everything we do – we live and breathe cohesive, intentional practices that keep our clients’ needs and desired results at the forefront every step of the way. We believe that integration helps us deliver faster, higher-quality, and more efficient projects – for a better way to create, collaborate, and construct.
Core values
Value add
Yellowstone Architecture + Construction’s key strength lies in its balance of diverse expertise, effective project management, and its agile and collaborative approach; speeding up construction projects by eliminating the “gaps” that slow them down. As design and construction leaders, Yellowstone partners with property owners from the beginning of each project to build integrated, collaborative teams of designers and trade professionals, avoiding the disfunction that complicates the industry and setting up the project for success.
Construction projects are often drawn out in the beginning by a complex design/bid/re-design process and later by a slow and ineffective problem-solving process. Yellowstone’s sweet spot is in the beginning of projects where diverse expertise begets integrated, agile teams with clear, aligned goals and collaborative problem solving. Whether the single point of responsibility or quarterbacking a diverse team, Yellowstone excels at simplifying the building process so that clients can stay focused on what they do best.
Leadership Team
Andrew Hauptman, President
Why architecture?
I’ve always loved combining my affection for art, design, and technology. Architecture has a profound impact on the environment, our society, and the individual – and I strongly believe that great architectural design can solve many of the biggest problems we face today.
What’s the best part of the job?
Working with the most effective team imaginable, and serving inspirational clients. I’m very fortunate.
Charles Huber, Architecture & Design Services Manager
Why design?
I really appreciated theater and art galleries growing up, and both of those inspired my love for design.
What’s your favorite past project?
I was part of a team that developed a hospital in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. It involved master planning and ground-up development of a critical access hospital in a remote location – which was a really fulfilling process. The UP is also one of my favorite places to visit!
Mark See, Associate Director of Construction
Why construction?
I love transforming something ‘intangible’ into something you can touch and see.
What’s your favorite past project?
It was a series of tensile fabric structures in a courtyard as part of a health care project. From a practical perspective, they provided shade – but also, the courtyard was surrounded by patient towers, and the structures were backlit with a lighting design that created a soothing effect. It was a meaningful project.
Molly Haller, Controller
Why finance?
In college, I interviewed for an accounting internship on a whim and got it – and found that my analytical personality is a good fit for this discipline. I enjoy finding the story behind the numbers!
What’s the best part of your job?
I love seeing my team advance and achieve their goals – and, I am glad to add to female representation in accounting and finance. It’s important to carry while you climb.

William Robinson, Superintendent
What skill are you most proud of?
I can get along with pretty much anybody. Working with the CREW is easy – and it’s definitely my favorite part of the job.
What’s a fun fact about you?
In addition to building things, I also enjoy triathlons.
Danielle Seewald, Project Engineer
Why construction?
I started my career in interior design – that's what my degree is in, actually – and after eight years doing design, I had the chance to start working with the Yellowstone team to build on my administration skills and field experience. It’s helped me understand and love the whole process from concept to completion.
What’s a fun fact about you?
I’m really good at finding things, like misplaced items. It’s my super power!
Steve Stedman, Senior Project Manager
What's a fun fact about you?
I appreciate all kinds of construction, but my favorite type is building LEGO with my son.
What’s a favorite project you've worked on?
I had the opportunity to work on the Sony Motion Capture Studios in Los Angeles, which gave me the chance to learn about cutting-edge film studio techniques and how to implement them into a well-designed, thoughtfully-constructed facility.
Jenna Walker, Associate Director of Interior Design
Why design?
I was exposed to the architecture and design industry at an early age, and came from a long line of artistic creatives. I love the visual, creative exploration in our field, and continue to find fulfilment in it because of the incredible impact that interior design has on our lives.
What's the best part of the job?
I love helping clients see their vision come to fruition. Curating and designing the right mix of aesthetic and functional objects and spatial experiences is a rewarding endeavor!
Elizabeth Wilk, Architectural Designer
Why architecture?
Growing up, I’d visit my Dad in Georgia and take daily walks through developing neighborhoods. I’d design in my head what an unfinished building could look like, and loved watching it come together.
What’s been your biggest learning experience?
I worked on a renovation for a Detroit-based corporation, and my architectural skills expanded when I was pushed toward more creative design decisions. It was an unforgettable experience of professional growth.
Caleb Marquard, Architect
Why architecture?
Architecture is art in which a human can dwell. It can resonate history and inspire the soul. Why do explorers climb the highest mountains, or dive to ancient deeps? I choose architecture because it is a culmination.
What's the best part of the job?
Developing concepts with clients. Painting mental pictures, solving problems, and seeing faces light up when we’ve landed on the right track. It’s very rewarding.
Kristen Scherbarth, Senior Interior Designer
Why design?
Design is a perfect mix of creativity and technical expertise. I love the detail interior design can bring to an environment. Starting with drawing technical details to define how a product will be used, working with our team during installation and seeing it completed is so rewarding.
What’s a fun fact about you?
When not designing I enjoy spending time with my family. Whether its planting flowers on our flower farm, hiking through the woods, kayaking down the Huron River you can usually find us enjoying the outdoors.
Jon Newcomb, Foreman
Why construction?
I’ve always had a high aptitude for mechanics and the way things work. I love working with my hands, I love the synergy with the CREW, and I love changes in scenery as we shift projects.
What skill are you most proud of?
I have a wide range of skills, and I’d say versatility is my greatest asset. I have a fairly complete toolbox of experiences to draw from and can pretty much handle anything that’s thrown at me.
Jeremiah Livingston, Lead Carpenter
Why construction?
I really enjoy working with my team to overcome unexpected problems during the whole process of designing and building. It’s rewarding to be able to point at a building that I renovated or built from the ground up!
What’s your favorite memory in the business?
I renovated a beautiful hotel in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and got to walk to work every day along the beach. It was awesome!
