Jillian Kalogerson has been handy from a young age. Learning everything from her dad, she renovated her own home while going to law school.

She learned that law school wasn't what she ultimately wanted, but building and construction was.

Fast forward to today, she is the Principal at RISE Collaborative Development - a full-service construction company specializing in meeting clients' needs during all phases of the planning, development and construction of both commercial and residential spaces.

With projects like Malcolm Yards in Minneapolis, Keg and Case in St. Paul, and the restaurant, Hai Hai, Jillian is driven by a purpose to build communities...and she is just getting started.
