After attending Vanderbilt University and pursuing an academic-oriented career, her love for art and design re-ignited and she joined Nate Berkus Associates to kick off her Interior Design career. She furthered her education at Harrington College of Design while working full-time with the NBA family and managed and designed projects for commercial and private high-end residential clients and celebrities featured in national publications as well as The Nate Berkus Show and The Oprah Winfrey Show. She also assisted with development and rendering of original room designs for major publications and TV programs including Chicago Tribune, The Today Show, and Family Circle Magazine. Her entrepreneurial interests lead to the desire to open her own firm in 2012 under the belief that every environment should boast a timeless foundation infused with an edge that reflects the essence of each client. Since opening the doors, the firm has been recognized as the Fashion Group International Rising Star in Design, a recipient of Wayfair’s National Trade Tastemaker Award, Modern Luxury's Best of Design Award and tapped as the Merchandise Mart's One's to Watch. Brynn’s credence - “How you shape your space will shape your day™” - is the cornerstone by which each project spanning nationwide is approached. The power of a well designed interior is not only an immediate aesthetic transformation but also an incredible impact on the individual who lives, works or interacts with that space. “I’m honored every time a new client asks us to be a part of their life in such a personal way.” Show less
