How long have you been in the industry?

How would you describe your personal style?
“Warm minimalism design/ No-fuss and clean elegance.”

Tell us a quick summary of your professional background:
“Live and breathe for kitchen design/ making my clients happy gives me a kind of satisfaction words can’t describe.”

Why did you get into kitchen design?
“Every kitchen I’ve worked on presents a different challenge/ in the end I want a beautiful outcome that my clients can remember every time they walk into their kitchen. ”

How do you find inspiration when you help a customer design a space?
“You have to get to know your client; find out why they are un-happy with the space. A relationship between yourself and your client is important for a positive outcome.”

“Sharing my passion with clients who become a very big part of my life/ I’m happiest when I succeed at completing an interior as my clients envisioned without knowing it.”

When you are not designing kitchens – what do you do in your spare time? What are your favorite things to do for fun?
“I love working out/ lifting weights and running. It’s my second passion. Oh and drink wine, they are tied for number two.”
