“Sometimes it is the people no one imagines anything of who do the things that no-one can imagine” — Alan Turing
Joining our team in 2015, Kim is passionate about helping our clients develop designs that work for their lifestyle. Involved with almost every step in the process, Kim provides our Designers with detailed 3D elevation designs and renderings using Chief Architect, as well as 2020 Design.

Incredibly organized, she assists in the sourcing and ordering of cabinetry, hardware, tile selections, plumbing fixtures, lighting, countertops and a variety of other accessories. Once construction has started, she assists our field personnel to ensure overall quality and completeness of the project. Kim’s specialties include kitchen cabinetry layouts and details, bathroom design & details, and multi-room renovation layouts.
