She cultivated networks among procurement agencies, designers and hospitality brand personnel to propose, secure and consummate on production orders for casegoods, custom seating, window treatments, fabrics and bathroom equipment.

She utilizes her industry insider status to identify the manufacturers and suppliers that can deliver each item in the most cost-efficient and timely manner.
