Industry: Wholesale Lumber/Building Materials
Business Name: Silvaris Corporation

Originally from Montana, I graduated from the University of Montana in 2006 with a Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration, Marketing & Management. In 2012, I accepted a position with the Silvaris Corporation in order to leverage my sales and marketing skills into a career that enables the freedom and flexibility to do the things I am passionate about. Those things include: skiing, traveling, backpacking, hunting, fishing, and just about any outdoor adventure. My wife, Melissa, and I moved to Coeur d’Alene in 2015 and have enjoyed all that this town and region have to offer.

Silvaris Corporation is a technology-powered trading company specializing in buying and selling wholesale quantities of lumber and building materials. The company was founded in 2000 by a team of forest industry professionals and web technology experts. The founders recognized a relative lack of technological advancement in the lumber and building materials sector, and began to work on filling that gap. By leveraging the power of an industry-leading group of traders, Silvaris developed programs tailored to the needs of real-world lumber buyers and sellers. The unique combination of trading expertise and software engineering leadership resulted in the first e-commerce platform in North America specific to forest products. Silvaris is headquartered in Seattle, WA with sales and operations groups spanning the US, Canada and Mexico.
