Accreditations/Experience: My design career with Walter E. Smithe began in 2007. Prior to Smithe I worked in textile surface design, invitation design, and as a retail sales manager and buyer. My diverse design background led me to be a great match for this position, combining both my creative and people skills.
Inspiration to Pursue a Design Career: I enjoy the process of custom work and find great reward in bringing my client’s vision to reality. This requires strong communication with the vendors to produce the desired results. I love to inspire and be inspired.
I have an artistic eye, with great color and space awareness. I build strong client relationships, and listen closely to your needs to develop a successful plan. Functional space planning and presenting fabric collections with color, texture, and style variation is my specialty.
