What I'm looking for

I seek design roles where I can lead residential and commercial projects end-to-end, collaborate with clients and contractors, and apply my NCIDQ/LEED-certified expertise to produce detailed, buildable designs.

I am a Senior Interior Designer with extensive experience in residential and commercial projects, including kitchens, bathrooms, offices, healthcare, and educational facilities. I combine technical drafting skills with client-facing presentation and finish selection expertise.

Over my career I have produced floor plans, elevations, renderings, cabinet schedules, specification documents, bid documents and interior finish boards, and have managed projects from programming through construction coordination. I am NCIDQ and LEED certified and hold NKBA specialty badges in remodeling, cabinetry, and floor plans & specifications.

I leverage software including Chief Architect, 2020 Design, AutoCAD, and Revit to deliver detailed design packets and client presentations, and I thrive on translating client needs into functional, attractive spaces.
