27 years in the business, and hundreds of projects completed, and yet I learned so much! The art of the business of design is often an elusive topic to find solid guidance and coaching on…..and I finally found it here! It’s like finally finding the light switch after nearly 3 decades of stumbling around in the dark.

I have clarity surrounding delineating scope of work, expectations for communication and roles we play to help homeowners get their project completed well. I have so many ideas to implement back into my business workflows for current & future projects. Thank you.
