Inspired By:

I am always inspired by my clients and the spaces they are looking to occupy. Each client has such different needs and different visions, and as each space has its own challenges, navigating through them and being able to create spaces that are beyond their expectations is such an honor.

Keys to a Successful Project:
Thoughtfulness, creativity, and a strong team allow for a successful project. Being able to dig deeper and truly understand your client’s needs allows the team to provide a thoughtful approach to their space. From there, all the details, big and small, help to create spaces that are functional, beautiful, and impactful.

Interests Outside of Work:

I love cooking and trying new restaurants, traveling around the world, and snowboarding.

“Jess is an amazing designer with such attention to detail! It has been amazing to watch her grow year to year and really find her design groove!”

Favorite Haworth Collection Piece:

LC1 Lounge Chair

What Is Special About It:

As a petite person, I love the sit of it – my feet actually touch the ground, and my body is properly supported (thank you historical body types). The elegance of it and clean lines makes this such a timeless piece.
