I’m Kiel (pronounced Keel). I reside in sunny Los Angeles with a Brussels Griffon named Howard and a cat named Flora. In my downtime I enjoy a new DIY project on a weekly basis, gardening, exercising, and priding myself in never saying no to an opportunity. Having started working in the industry at the age of 15, over the past 25 years I have worked in basically all areas of interiors. I started my career in home staging and real estate in Minnesota. After studying interior design and architecture, I went on to high-end residential design, commercial design, product design, and over 8 years in kitchen and bath. Once I was tired of faucets, I made the shift back to high-end residential design becoming Design Director of David Scott Interiors in NYC, followed by President of Newel Antiques and Fine Art. After 10 years in NYC, I needed a fresh start during the pandemic and moved to Los Angeles on a whim. This brought in my current era as Senior Creative Director of Vesta Home where I specialize in Luxury Home Staging and Instant Home Design. Averaging between 45-60 homes a year (not a typo!) I design and install homes with less than a week’s notice on a frighteningly regular basis. Speed and attention to detail has always been my strong suit and I am in love with the fact that it continues to excel my career. I have been lucky enough to work with a large roster of public figures and A-list celebrities. I can't help but feel I am still just at the beginning of my story.
