Stefanie Boardman, Office Manager (AKA: Chaos Coordinator)

Stefanie has been with THI since 2018. Originally hired as a selection specialist, after a year at THI, she transitioned into the Office Manager Role. Despite the demands of her office role, she still helps with our New Construction buyers selections.

Stefanie loves her job and also Total Home - she enjoys the interaction with customers and providing MVP assistance to her coworkers.

When not at work, you can often find her at the beach.

It was refreshing to see such pride in workmanship, and the attention to detail such as sanding the handrails, placing finals on the gate post and the clean-up that followed completion of the project.
