Staying up to date with CEU's

Keeping up with trends and design practices can be and is, indeed a full-time job. On the one hand you must take the CEU's to keep you license in 'current' status, thus a chore. On the other having the choices of what to attend not only keeps you informed but let's you hone in and tap into resources you did not have before. I have been approached in several occasions regarding my interest in becoming an expert witness in several design-related cases. While I must admit that attending any courtroom for whatever the reason is about as appealing as getting a root canal, the CEU I attended this evening on 'becoming an expert witness' has opened my eyes in fearing not the process but actually finding it quite educational in nature. I have provided affidavits before and even referred colleagues for their experience, yet, now I further understand that my experience is what I bring to the table. Being able to listen, learn and offer an impartial, unbiased opinion on subjects that I am passionate about, and so versed in that it comes natural, is one more way I can further my value to the profession.

My design philosophy stems from the beauty within an element. Knowing how to highlight these unique elements allow us to achieve a surreal focal point in a room. Creating an ‘interior that lifts your spirit’™ are my goals in achieving a successful interior design project. I emphasize colors derived from Mother Nature. These color palettes guide the mood within the space. Listening to the clients’ needs and getting that “special sense” in their own environment makes for the magical transformation from the early stages of space planning to the completed magnificent room.
