About Amy Archer

Self-proclaimed furniture junkie with a passion for aligning upholstery companies strengths to meet customers future needs. Devoted to collaborating and brainstorming to find the highest and best ideas. Lover of story telling and messaging to ignite new product.As a young girl I secretly wished that I had super powers, not the usual wonder woman kind. I wanted to be able to make homes beautiful, all with the blink of an eye. My wish was granted, I have been blessed with leading merchandising teams for Rowe Furniture, Palliser, Surya, American Leather and Lee Industries and Klaussner.
