“I think the best part of design is connecting with the client and understanding what their needs are for a space in the most comprehensive way. Often times a client has a hard time articulating what it is they actually need their space to do for them. Diving in, building a relationship and asking the right questions allows me to solve design dilemmas and create the best possible space for them.”
