Construction literate, pmp-certified, senior-level support.
Your interior design studio doesn’t need more staff. It needs better support.
I provide senior-level design, procurement, and operations support so principals can focus on clients, not logistics.
Experience & Approach
-
I’m a senior design and operations professional with deep experience supporting interior design projects from concept through execution readiness, including hands-on design-build and construction coordination.
I previously owned and operated a design-build business, working directly with trades, vendors, schedules, and budgets. That construction background informs how I approach design documentation, procurement, and project coordination today.
I’m also PMP certified, which means I bring structured project management principles to creative work without overcomplicating the process.
-
I integrate into existing teams quickly and work independently once priorities are clear.
That usually means assessing what’s already in motion, identifying gaps or bottlenecks, and taking ownership of specific scopes so principals and designers can stay focused on clients and creative direction.
I’m comfortable working behind the scenes or client-facing when needed, and I prioritize clarity, responsiveness, and momentum over unnecessary process.

What to expect, from first call to execution
How engagements work
Step 1: Initial Call
We start with a short call to understand your studio, current workload, and where support would be most useful. This conversation is focused on fit, scope, and priorities.
Step 2: Scope & Structure
Based on that conversation, I’ll recommend a support structure that makes sense for your needs. This may be hourly, project-based, or an ongoing retainer, depending on volume and complexity.
Step 3: Plug In & Execute
Once scoped, I integrate into your workflow and take ownership of the agreed-upon support. Communication is clear, timelines are realistic, and follow-through is consistent.

SUPPORT CAN LOOK LIKE THIS

✗
Wearing too many hats & acting as designer, project manager, & operations lead
Spending more time chasing details, vendors, and payments then focusing on clients
Feeling stretched thin as projects move into documentation, procurement, or construction
Knowing systems could be better, but not having the time or bandwidth to fix them
You’re able to take on more projects without sacrificing quality or burning out
Projects move forward without constant oversight or micromanagement
Fewer details slip as work transitions from design into execution
Systems and workflows support growth instead of slowing things down
Support isn’t a cost. It’s how you grow.
Handling coordination and execution that should not require your direct attention

You can focus on higher-value clients, creative direction, and building the studio you actually want
