As for my time outside of work, I have lots of different passions! I love to spend time with my close family, friends, and church family as community means a lot to me.

So many things to enjoy!

Hello! My name is Sydney. In my time at the office, you’ll find me on the phone scheduling and answering questions, along with looking into orders and arrival dates. My favorite thing about being a part of the Budget Blinds family is seeing the before and after photos! Hearing how it makes life easier for the customer and how it pulls a room together, keeping comfort and style in mind!

In my personal time, I enjoy reading, crafting, and singing on my church’s worship team.

My favorite part about the job is getting to see all the unique houses and seeing our customers happy with the final product. I've got a good attention to detail and like to have a plan and order for the installs. Outside of work, I like sports and hanging with friends.

I like working at Budget Blinds because I actually get to see the difference my work makes.  As an installer, I'm the one finishing the job and making sure everything fits, functions, and looks top-notch.  I enjoy the challenge of figuring things out on site and leaving customers happy with their new blinds or shades.  It's a good feeling driving away, knowing I made someone's home a little better.  Plus, the team here feels like family; we joke around, help each other out, and take pride in doing things right.  It's a combination of the hands-on work with a visible payoff alongside people I get to interact and learn from every day.

Hi, my name is Violet and I've been working in the family business for a few years now.  I have done installation and administrative work.  I love talking to new people and helping their homes look refreshed with new shades!  I am attentive to details and quick at what I do.  I never want any surprises for our customers and can't wait to see them in your home! 

As the Commercial Business Lead at Budget Blinds of Cedar Falls/Waterloo, I specialize in estimating, field measuring, administrative work, and overseeing installations. I take pride in delivering precise, high-quality solutions that meet the unique needs of each project while ensuring a seamless experience from start to finish.

Beyond my professional role, I have a deep passion for music, it has played a huge part in my life. I also enjoy gaming and appreciate the strategy and creativity it brings. My work ethic is fueled by a commitment to excellence, strong faith, love for caffeine, and a dedication to continuous improvement.
