Blaine Linster
My name is Blaine Linster. I was born in Minot, ND but quickly moved to Rapid City at the age of two. I
went to school at Grandview, South Middle School, and Central High School. After High School I
attended South Dakota State University, where I received my Bachelor’s Degree in Physical Education.
After college I spent two years living in Colorado, and the past 12 years living in Arizona. While in
Arizona, I attained my Master’s degree in Educational Administration. In 2025, my family and I moved
back home to the Black Hills and have been loving being back around family, friends, and all that the
Hills have to offer!
I am passionate about my job because it is something that I grew up watching and doing. My father is an
exceptional craftsman, and I have been lucky enough to be able to work alongside him through
complete tear downs and remodels of homes throughout my adult life. Being able to watch those
projects start at literal ground zero, and turn into a beautiful home is exciting to me in so many ways. I
love getting the opportunity to help other homeowners and business owners get to enjoy that same
excitement throughout their projects!
Hobbies & Interests: Golf, family outings, lake time, baseball
My burning desire is to: Being known for doing the right thing and pass along traits to my children that
they would be proud of
Something no one knows about me: I pass out when I think about or see blood
My key to success is: Organizational skills and attention to detail
Best childhood memory: Playing in the 2005 Legion World Series played in Rapid City!
