I believe a furniture brand is built through strategic product planning.
My background as an interior designer allows me to instinctively understand applications, and in turn respond with innovative product designs that address the ever-evolving functional needs of the modern built environment.
I work directly with your team to establish parameters, identify market opportunities and then help shape design solutions that are relevant, manufacturable, and marketable.
