Experienced Kitchen Designer for Custom Renovations
My Heritage
We all know that technology (AI), remote careers, and family challenges have influenced the social center of the home, your kitchen. Embracing change for the better is essential, while discarding the 'trendy' as a poor design motive. The expertise of an educated and seasoned kitchen designer is fundamental in creating your perfect kitchen, especially when it comes to custom cabinetry and overall kitchen design. Remember, it's all about 'Form, Function, & Fashion!' Who better to design a 'kitchen which cooks' than a designer who grew up in the restaurant business, renowned for highly successful restaurants and kitchen renovations?
My Motivation
Beginning my design career with St. Charles Kitchens in St. Charles, Illinois, my foundations in sound design, cabinetry engineering, and a passion for kitchen design have shaped the principles I carry with me to this day. While at St. Charles, I had the privilege of working alongside contemporaries like Ellen Cheever and Sarah Reep, whose dynamic influence continues to inspire every professional designer today. With my education from a premier high-end cabinet company and its department professionals, I bring a wealth of knowledge in custom cabinetry that enhances any kitchen renovation.
Designer why?
Cabinetry can be purchased from anyone of any quality, ranging from stock to bespoke options. The fundamental principles of custom cabinetry are a box, doors, drawers, and finish.
Hypnotized by the 3/4 all plywood box, this back, that bottom, I have utilized European high-end furniture board box cabinets in multi-million dollar homes. Twenty years down the road, they remain as pristine as the day of installation. If you desire a bespoke cabinet crafted from a truly one-of-a-kind wood species or piece, the choice is yours.
It's the designer who transforms your kitchen design from mundane to magnificent. The designer is the one who creates the Luxe kitchen, not merely the cabinets.
Choose your designer wisely for your kitchen renovation!
