Heather Tryggestad
Controller

As Controller overseeing Hoerr Schaudt’s accounting team, Heather is the efficiency and accuracy whiz who ensures smooth processes behind the scenes. Her career spans time working in public accounting, in-house finance within the ad industry, and crunching numbers for a small boutique shop in Chicago.

Heather stays active by training for her annual women’s triathlon that supports ovarian cancer. When she’s looking to relax, she’s fond of sewing—during the pandemic, she even started her own company making cotton face masks to benefit the American Cancer Society. As a mother of three, Heather is a regular on the sidelines, where you’ll always find her cheering on her kids in their various activities.
