My enthusiasm for interior decorating & design lead me to pursue more formal training in design when I enrolled and studied the Interior Design Management program at BCIT. I continued my full-time studies with The Vancouver Training Institute, where I graduated with "Honours", from the "Residential Interior Decorating & Design Program".
My subsequent introduction to the idea of ReDesign or "use what you have decorating" and Real Estate Staging convinced me that these innovative concepts would combine naturally with my expertise in interior decorating. I continued my training and achieved a professional certification in Real Estate Staging. This specialized training allowed me to expand the services I am able to offer my clients.
The combination of a Diploma in Interior Decorating enhanced by training and Certified Real Estate Staging sets me apart from most consultants currently working in the field. Whether your space needs to be personalized or de-personalized, I offer both functional and creative design solutions, sure to meet your needs.
