Heidi J. Blum’s Summary

After completing Business School at the University of Colorado, I was trained in New York City as a securities broker. For several years I mainly worked with money managers and larger private clients. I went back to school for four years in Europe (Switzerland) to study visual communication. Since, I have worked professionally for the last 15 years as a designer, with great concentration in the Sporting Goods industry. I run a small firm, Gemini Design, and am the owner of a small custom ski company, heidiskis. We produce very high performance exclusive, handmade skis for limited retail sale and private clients. 10 % of profits go to the American Himalayan Foundation.
