Inspiration To Pursue A Design Career:  Even as a little girl, I have always been interested in fashion and design, watching my sister prepare for fashion shows that she participated in. I would watch how she would put her outfits together, and my love for fashion and design took off from here.  My family and friends recognized my passion for fashion and eye for style, and I began helping them design their homes.  

While shopping at Walter E. Smithe as a client, I was able to meet Mr. Smithe, who through conversation learned of my love for design. From this discussion transitioned to an interview, and from there a career as a designer.

Working with Charlene Scott was a dream. They say, "You dream it, we build it." Well, the whole experience with Walter E. Smithe was a wonderful dream. It was mainly because of the ease of picking out the furniture, designing what I wanted and ordering it...all with Char's help. She even came over on delivery day to my house to be sure the order was right--outstanding customer service!
