High end Model Home Merchandising, Residential and Commercial Design Services.While I truly enjoyed helping clients create lovely and functional spaces to live in... I developed a true passion for designing and installing model homes for new construction communities. From finish selections to window treatments, flooring to décor, furniture and everything else that makes a home sing, I designed, ordered and installed over 60 model homes in 3.5 years.What I loved most about designing model homes is that I was not actually just designing... I was creating a memorable and impactful impression for clients helping to sell multiple homes in the community. I designed to sell a lifestyle, a feeling and ultimately... a home. My passion has always been to create designs that feels both obtainable and aspirational for home buyers and homeowners alike. I also excelled at creating unique memory points throughout the homes that showcased my artistic creativity. Show less
