I attended the New York School of Interior Design in Manhattan where I received my education in interior design and space planning. For many years I focused on interiors and in 2003, I started designing kitchens and using my interior design knowledge to influence the overall design of the space, color, period style, tile, fabrics, lighting and countertop choices of my projects. I am an active member of the National Kitchen and Bath Association, and held the position of Chapter Representative, and Vice President of Professional Development for the NKBA Westchester Chapter. I attend conferences, seminars and training regularly to keep up to date on regulations, trends, new products, etc. I was awarded first place in the "Small Kitchen Category" in the NKBA sponsered Metropolitian Design Competition where I designed a beautiful kitchen in a horse stable.
