MATTHEW SILVESTER

Frame to Finish Carpentry Lead and/or Timber Shop Lead

I am the framing/shop lead and have worked for elevated since October of 2025. 

My first full time job was for a general contractor in the early 90s and have enjoyed developing skills aimed at being a carpenter and timber framer. I had received an opportunity to frame timber structures in Teton valley Idaho in the late 90s which fostered a great interest in the timber construction industry. I appreciate the architecture and design timber structures command. 

I grew up in rexburg Idaho and have lived most of my life in east Idaho. I have worked in Teton valley Idaho as well as Teton county Wyoming building many homes with various levels of timber construction frame to finish in many cases.  I enjoy all types of carpentry as it is highly rewarding and challenging. 

I spend a great deal of time outdoors enjoying what this area has to offer skiing hiking camping ect. In conclusion I am very grateful to spend my time in the area surrounding the Tetons living and working.
