If you're planning to remodel, add on, or build, instead of just adding square footage or replacing cabinets — make your home work better! A good layout can make your home a pleasure to live in and your kitchen a pleasure to cook in, improve and direct traffic patterns, encourage social interaction — and give you more real value.
I studied at Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California, and taught Photoshop and computer graphics at college level for over 15 years. My passion for optimal workflow, ergonomics, and comfortable, beautiful living spaces, — and meeting your individual needs and desires — drives my design work.
