Meet Belkis
Casamia is proudly woman-owned and family-operated. I founded Casamia in to create a legacy of inspiration through creativity and design. My Nicaraguan roots bring my passion for building community and celebrating the individuality of every project, always innovating ways to make our clients’ homes crafted to their lives.
The passion isn’t just in building; it’s in the vibrant Latin tunes and infectious moods that make every project a dance of construction. With Casamia, it’s not just about the build; it’s about the journey and the joy in every step!
Together, we will create spaces that will inspire, delight, and endure for generations to come.
Hello!

Rafael Valdivia
Co-Founder, Contractor
Hey there! I’m Rafael, the co-founder and go-to GC of Casamia. I’m not just any General Contractor; I’m the on-site maestro, balancing everything from project management to hands-on labor. My brain’s always in math mode, and with my industrial engineering background, I’ve mastered the art of precision. Whether I’m solving complex equations or laying the foundation, I bring a touch of magic to every project. Dive into my world, and let’s build something extraordinary together!

Alysha Grant
Marketing Specialist
Hello! I'm Alysha and I've recently started as the marketing specialist for Casamia Builds. I recently graduated from University of Wisconsin River Falls with a degree majoring in environmental planning and a minor in women's gender and sexualities studies. Over the past four years, I have worked freelance as a social media content planner and was thrilled at the opportunity to take the dive into working for Casamia! Outside of work, I love to read, hike, rock climb, travel, and I teach ballet on the side.
The Casamia Carpenters
Step into an Casamia site, and you’ll be greeted with the rhythmic beats of salsa and bachata, setting the stage for our dynamic crew. While they might shy away from the camera, their craftsmanship speaks volumes. At the heart of it all is Fredy, our lead carpenter and on-site maestro. Then we have Rafael, our precision-driven GC, and then you’ll find Jonny, the carpenter with a penchant for demolition. Their passion isn’t just in building; it’s in the vibrant Latin tunes and infectious moods that make every project a dance of construction. With Casamia, it’s not just about the build; it’s about the journey and the joy in every step!
