I create functional, aesthetically pleasing residential spaces from consultation through installation.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I've spent 12 years designing residential spaces that balance function and aesthetics. As a self-employed interior designer, I guide clients from initial needs assessments and measurements through sourcing, purchasing, delivery, and final installation.
At Bassett Furniture, I generated more than $100,000 in sales as the store's top sales writer and trained the Culver City team on design process and planning. I create space plans, select furniture and finishes, and translate clients' needs into complete room designs.
My background also includes design consulting at Ethan Allen and early design roles at La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries and Lee Design & Interiors. I bring hands-on experience with client consultations, color and material selection, furniture sales, project management, and residential design.
