Arlie’s journey with Quest Cabinetry began almost by chance, taking a warehouse job that ignited a lifelong passion for cabinetry design. Under the guidance of mechanical engineer mentors, he honed an analytical mindset and embraced continuous refinement. Transitioning to sales and design, Arlie found his true calling in transforming ideas into functional pieces.
Today, he fosters a collaborative environment valuing every voice. Colleagues admire his depth of knowledge and commitment to customer service. Embodying integrity, Arlie lives by the golden rule, staying true to principles even when difficult. An avid outdoorsman, he finds solace in the Gallatin Valley's landscapes he fell in love with as a child.
Chasing four kids takes up the majority of Arlie’s time outside of work, but if he has a chance he does enjoy golf, fly fishing, dirt bikes and camping. Part of the joy of being in Bozeman is spending as much time as possible in the mountains exploring. As Quest evolves, Arlie excitedly pushes boundaries, redefining possibilities while infusing creativity and excellence into every endeavor. His journey exemplifies the power of embracing opportunities and following one's passions.

With over 25 years in the construction industry and a background as a CPA, her expertise ensures solid business foundations. Her initial collaboration with partner Arlie Naeher on cabinetry in her own home ignited a creative spark that led to Quest's founding in 2020.
Colleagues describe Joan as the "frosting" to Arlie's "cake," bringing a fresh design eye, trend knowledge, and unique spatial perspectives. The showroom allows her talents to shine through curation and staging. Embodying Quest's refinement value, Joan relentlessly pursues quality and continuous improvement, fostering excellence.
Beyond work, Joan treasures time with her family, especially her new grandson, lakeside wakesurfing, and outdoor adventures. Her excitement lies in delivering superior design experiences directly to homeowners, leveraging Quest's abilities. Joan's journey harmoniously integrates diverse strengths to create extraordinary cabinetry solutions.

“Their attention to detail parallels ours, so it is a very symbiotic working relationship. Quest is always sensitive to the budget, caring about every detail throughout the build, and accountable for punch items at the very end. We are selective about who we team with at Gallatin Valley Design Group, and Quest has become one of our top go-to partners. We would highly recommend them for any builder, designer, or architect in the valley.”

"Based on our experience working with Arlie on our previous new-build house, it was a no-brainer to work with him and his team on our 17-year old kitchen remodel. The reason we came back to Quest was for their creativity, honesty, and dependability. I had ideas and Quest brought them to life. They made it easy to make decisions by narrowing down my options based on my ideas, which I really appreciate versus looking at all options, which can be a bit overwhelming. The added organization suggestions were a bonus and the consistent feedback we get from guests is the kitchen is so cheery and inviting. It's exactly what we wanted!"
- JULIE N.
"They always made us feel like our project was very important by listening to our questions and needs, then coming to us with solutions and ideas. The cabinets we received from Quest were methodically planned out with exceptional details and organization. All the drawers and cabinets have functional details that make everyday life in the kitchen easier and cleaner!"

“Quest's products and services truly stand out from the competition. The quality of their cabinets and accessories is phenomenal, and their install team did an amazing job. Working with Quest was a pleasure, as their install team took the time and care to ensure a perfect installation. They also promptly addressed any issues we encountered post-installation. I highly recommend Quest as a great partner to work with. The experience was worth it, and we were pleasantly surprised by the opportunity to get to know the team.”

"Quest’s design and execution of our remodel completely transformed the look and function of our kitchen and laundry room. Joan and her team went the extra mile to help us visualize different options for color and configuration. Their expertise gave us the confidence in making difficult decisions in the design process. They not only provide the cabinetry but worked closely with our contractor to ensure every detail of the installation went smoothly. We love our new spaces and would highly recommend Quest Cabinetry."
