Kitchen Craft Retail Store Experience: 12 yrs

After completing an Interior Design Technology program, I attended a presentation put on by a Kitchen Craft designer from Ottawa who had been designing kitchens since before I was born. At that time, I wasn’t sure which facet of the design world I was going to try, but after listening to his enthusiasm and expertise, I realized that cabinetry has a HUGE impact on a home and knew that it was the right fit for me.

I enjoy adding unique features for my clients spaces, the ones that are just for them. During an onsite consultation, my client was telling me the funniest story of how her child likes to have secret hiding places for his special things. What came of this conversation was an idea to create a secret hatch within a section of her kitchen design.

I like to put myself in my customer’s shoes: “if this were my kitchen, what would be my must haves?” and give them the options they need to make the right decisions for themselves on how they function in their space.
