I have always loved the design process, how you have to come up with ideas and think them through to create livable and beautiful spaces. I am a person who has a passion for being creative, love doing the “extra touches” and enjoy finding imaginative ideas for everything I set out to do.

After graduating from Oregon State University I was eager to put this creative process to work along with my understanding of color and principles of design. Paul Schatz Furniture gave me an opportunity to offer these talents and knowledge to clients. Here is where I enjoyed presenting floor plans and scouting for furniture, fabrics, and materials.

After 8 successful years as an Interior Designer I changed careers and took on the challenge of raising three wonderful children. Now as they begin their own careers I find myself back where I began. My enthusiasm to please people and my design background help establish another position at Paul Schatz Furniture. I enjoy talking and assisting dozen of different people each day by serving as a receptionist.

There’s always something different to do on my list including assisting clients with their design challenges, helping management and working alongside the interior’s team as an assistant to the designers. I truly enjoy how work is different every day and always interesting with the added bonus of being surrounded by many other creative minds and successful Interior Designers.
