Pulp Design Studios is an award-winning, nationally recognized interior design firm with offices in Dallas and Seattle. As Interior Design Lead at Pulp Design Studios, I manage and direct the design team through the concepting, development, and execution of projects. This includes overseeing all aspects of the design process from space planning, budgeting, finish and furniture selections, client presentations, design specifications and documentation, proposal preparation, purchasing, expediting, installation, and invoicing. I am responsible for prompt, consistent, and customer service oriented client correspondence, ensuring the project goes as smoothly as possible and managing client expectations from start to finish.

As an interior designer at Pulp Design Studios, I have a hand in residential and commercial projects from initial consultations to final installations. My responsibilities include site documenting (or reviewing CDs and other documentation of new builds or remodels), creating and presenting client budgets, drawing floor plans, furniture layouts, and finish elevations in CAD, selecting and customizing interior finishes, furnishings, lighting, art, and accessories, specifying and ordering selections, creating and presenting design presentations and proposals, coordinating with clients, vendors, contractors, and installers, expediting and project management, and conducting and documenting full service project installations.
