I am an Independant Interior Designer and have been in business in the Portland area for seven years. I have 22 years experience in the home interiors industries.
I have extensive experience in upholstered furniture, in fact running a furniture showroom. I also specialize in custom window treatments, both decorative and privacy. Working with fabrics to create a totally comfortable, totally cohesive feeling in your room is my forte.
I teach an Interior Design Program through the community school at Portland Community College. This is a great option for clients to meet me and get to know my style. You'll also learn a bit about the design process and where to begin in your own home! If you're having trouble getting started, I suggest finding an inspiration item!
Picking surfaces for your home - flooring and countertops - can be challenging. I have quite a bit of experience in this. There is an example of my work at
Standard TV & Appliance in Beaverton - kitchen vignette #15.
In the last year, I've added retirement living to my resume having selected all
finishes, color scheme, and public space planning for a 100,000 square foot
retirement home.
