Michelle's interior design career began in a slightly unconventional way. After completing a design project for a family member in 2000 a part-time design business developed. A few years later after careful consideration, she left a long term career in insurance to complete an interior design degree and fully focus efforts in the design field.
Michelle currently serves on the Interior Design Advisory Board at Johnson County Community College. She has been awarded for her work in the commercial and residential design categories by the Kansas City chapter of the American Society of Interior Designers. Michelle's primary focus, whether the project is commercial or residential in nature, is creating highly personalized spaces based on each clients lifestyle and functional needs.
