As a Senior Design Consultant, Ann is responsible for a great deal of what happens ‘behind the scenes.’ In addition to assisting Sales in determining a client’s unique cultural, spatial, and budgetary needs, Ann selects and prices product, creates furniture plans, develops high quality renderings, selects finishes, engages with clients, and assembles installation drawings. Ann has over 30 years of experience in the contract furniture industry and proudly holds an NCIDQ Certification. This certification from the Council for Interior Design Qualification is the industry’s recognized standard of a designer’s knowledge and proficiency in interior design principles, and epitomizes a designer’s commitment to the profession. Ann has brought a wealth of design and product knowledge to our team, and we have enjoyed learning from her experience.

On the weekends, Ann enjoys visiting farmers markets and flea markets and spending time with her dog, Tucker, who is a schnauzer-poodle mix (she likes to call him a Snoodle!). Together, they enjoy snuggling and watching Netflix or reading a good book. Ann is also wonderfully talented at growing orchids.
