Shelby Leigh
@shelbyleigh
Client-focused interior design consultant delivering consultative furniture solutions.
What I'm looking for
I’m a client-focused interior design and consultative sales professional with 9+ years of experience, delivering personalized solutions in furniture retail and event coordination. I build trusted relationships, drive revenue, and manage complex projects with strong communication and calm problem-solving in fast-paced environments.
In my Interior Design Consultant role (2023–present), I evaluate client needs, style preferences, space constraints, and budgets to create cohesive, functional living spaces. I partner closely with sales consultants to develop and present customized design selections that align design concepts, product selections, and pricing to support a smooth sales presentation and successful close.
I offer both In-Store and In-Home services to meet clients where they are in the process—whether they’re buying a new home or remodeling. I also handle vendor and timeline management, turning last-minute details into clear next steps so everything comes together as planned.
Previously, as a Sales Consultant (2017–2023), I generated consistent sales by identifying customer needs and recommending furniture solutions aligned with style, comfort, space, and budget. Before that, as a Lead Coordinator/Planner (2022–2024), I coordinated wedding logistics in the final month, serving as the primary point of contact for clients and vendors, managing timelines, and ensuring seamless on-site execution.
