FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I have an hourly rate and a project rate and it really depends on the client's needs before I make this determination. If it is an hourly rate, I will give you an estimate of hours so you feel comfortable about moving forward. Clients also take advantage of purchasing window treatments, flooring, furniture, and more at below-retail prices through my partnerships with quality suppliers.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I always like to start with a complimentary phone chat to learn more about your project. Then you can expect a detailed proposal explaining my deliverables, design fees, and more via email. In some cases, I might need more information like photos or a site visit but most of the time, that's not necessary.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a degree from FIDM in downtown LA and have always done some form of design. At least 4 times a year, I attend home trade shows to stay on top of the trends and to source new quality suppliers for clients. As popular materials are always changing, I am vigilant about continually educating myself on surfaces, plumbing fixtures, color trends, and more.
