Her personality has helped her develop innovative interior design strategies for clients including Time Inc., Deloitte & Touche, Ann Taylor Inc., Viacom, John Wiley & Sons Publishing, DLA Piper, The Conference Board, Avon, and Lifetime TV. In addition, she led the design effort for the Kuwait National Assembly building following the first Iraq war and was awarded Designer of the Year by Interiors magazine.
