Welcome to the Team, Alex!

March 26th, 2024

We’re excited to welcome Alex Cook to our Bergland + Cram team!

Alex and her family are recent permanent residents of Mason City, moving from Utah after falling in love with Iowa after a family visit. Her love for architecture goes back to childhood, sketching buildings everywhere she went and being close and personal with the construction process. She is currently working on her Masters of Architecture while bringing engineering and communication skills to the team.

Alex is excited to learn and work alongside the B+C team and immerse herself in our team culture. Welcome to the team, Alex!

First Annual Trivia Night Success!

March 1st, 2024

Holding on to our Bronze win status!

We brought home a 3rd place win at the Chamber of Commerce’s First Annual Trivia Night! Dressed in our Zoom meeting/work from home/remote-in attire we also brought home the Best Dressed Team award! It’s become the standard for us to bring back a 3rd place win at every Chamber event we attend – and we kept the streak! We had a great time supporting the Chamber and competing with other businesses – maybe next year we bring back the trophy?

Welcome Abby!

June 8th, 2023

It’s summer, and you know what that means… we welcome our new intern Abby Klostermann!

Abby is an Architecture student at ISU and is excited to work with our team of designers and our clients to bring their architectural spaces to life! Abby grew up working on her family dairy farm, was involved in 4-H and created many projects to take to the Iowa State Fair, which steered her love for design.

Abby brings passion and diligence for problem-solving projects, sustainable design, and being a team player. If Abby had a super power it would be flying – to explore new places faster and more easily! We are excited to have Abby with us for the summer!
