Mizzou Women's Basketball Commit meets the Construction World

At Hemme Construction, we're different. Yes, we build beautiful homes of the utmost quality, but we are so much more than our product. We not only have a team here at Hemme, but a family! This past August, we had the privilege of taking on Averi Kroenke, a high school student at Rockbridge, as an intern for the semester. Averi chose Hemme Construction, "because I live in a Hemme Home, along with one of their subdivisions, Creek's Edge. I have loved all of the different homes that they have built, and I had an interest in architecture & home design; I wanted to see what their process was!"



Read more to hear about Averi's semester here at Hemme!





What is one thing that you found interesting during your internship?


I found it interesting how they can remember and refer to every house they are building, or have built, buy a lot number!





What is one thing that you learned that you were surprised by?


It surprised me how small details, whether the wall corners are rounded, or straight or the slope of the roof, can really determine the price of a home.





How did the internship meet your expectations?


It exceeded my expectations! Everyone on staff was so welcoming and made me feel like an important part of the team. Everyday, Brooke and Emalee would have something interesting or new to do, and I have learned so much from them, along with everyone else who is apart of the Hemme team!





How would you describe the work environment here at Hemme Construction?


The environment at Hemme is very welcoming and fun! Everyday, the staff welcomes me with a smile and asks me how my day was going!





What is your favorite memory while interning for us?


My favorite memory was getting to tour all of the different houses Hemme is building and see all of the client's floor plans "come to life"!





What new skills, techniques, and knowledge did you gain this fall?


I have learned about the process of designing floor plans, interacting with customers, what materials to use based on a client's budget, to continually check with the construction crew to make sure the floor plan is being built correctly, and much more!





What was the most rewarding thing about working with Hemme Construction this fall?


Definitely the amazing relationships I have built with the Hemme staff, along with learning new things about home design and custom home building!





Would you recommend this internship to other students? Why or why not?


Yes! 100%! I have learned so much and they did everything they could to make sure I gained the experience that I was looking for! They took me to houses about to sell, ones that were in the framing stage, along with vendors to see how they pick out different interior decisions with a client. I also got to sit in on meetings, interact with clients, design floor plans, and so much more! I have gotten to do so much, and I am so thankful for this experience!





What do you believe is the next step in your career, and did Hemme help you get there?


Before entering this internship, I was very unsure of what I wanted to major in next year at Mizzou. This internship has shown me how much I enjoy designing homes along with floor plans, and I could definitely see myself doing something in this industry. Next year, I plan to major in something that allows me to pursue a career in this field!

We are so thankful for Averi, and that we got to experience this with her! We wish her the best of luck at Mizzou next year, and will most definitely be tuning into Mizzou Women's Basketball games! Go Tigers!

Inspired and in love with our job,
