For Valerie, there is never an opportunity lost to make someone else’s day better, brighter or more beautiful. Her design work is illustrative of that philosophy, exuding balance, harmony, graciousness and light, plus all the functionality a modern lifestyle requires. The awards and accolades? She’s humbled by them but also appreciative because they reinforce how hard she works to make her clients’ spaces oh-so special and perfectly in tune with their lives.

Design secret: Not settling for well done; every space should be “elevated”

Point of Pride: Four amazing daughters, all independent women, who live abundant, interesting lives…and give me adorable grandchildren

From her youth, Jamie knew her fulfillment was in helping others. For a time, it appeared she would take a
different path to realize that passion, but interior design and the way it helps others achieve a happier, healthier, more positive outlook, won Jamie’s heart. With dual loves in historical architecture and modern European style, Jamie is our champion for all things fresh, unexpected and exuding urban sophistication.

Hidden talent: Event planning; creating memorable experiences for others

Design pet peeve: Nailheads

Family:  Husband (Stephen) and their two beloved Golden Retrievers

If it’s a business or financial operations function, Bethany has it nailed. Knowing that sheinvests her CPA-super powers behind the scenes gives us the ability to soar creatively for our clients. Plus, her keen listening skills coupled with a zeal for details ensures that clients, vendors, and even our delivery drivers, feel like they are cared for, heard, and completely appreciated.

Hobbies: A new-found love for knitting and crochet (a relaxing way to employ those mad math skills!)

All the good feels: When I started working in accounting I felt like I had finally found the work that God put me on Earth to do.
