Ridge Top Engraving was started by Holly Hageman in 2004.  After many years of working for other companies, Holly decided to take her artistic and creative talents and start a business she could pursue with passion. 
 
 
  Her childhood was largely responsible for the name of the business as well as her love of working with stones. Her parents bought a forty acre ‘ridge top’ in 1955 where her father fulfilled a lifetime dream of his. Holly’s father, a research chemist, and her mother a medical technologist, built a home largely comprised of stone work. This was an endeavor that took twenty two years to complete.

She grew up helping her father while he built the house. His love of stones and his creative visions somehow “Got in her blood”. She currently resides in that house which continues to inspire her.

Today it has become a passion spending endless time looking for stones and studying them to find just the right stone for the image to be engraved. She often looks for the "defects, flaws and contours” in a stone to use in unique and creative projects.

Holly says her main goal with her business is to make sure every customer is completely happy, so far it has been one hundred percent, she intends to keep it that way.
