ABOUT ME

Hello, I'm April.

 

I began working as an Interior Designer in the A+D industry in 1997. I logged approximately 20 years of work in the industry with large firms, small firms and even some consulting on my own.  I’ve established a reputation for delivering high quality projects, often producing innovative design solutions that make a big impact on the environment. Working with a diverse range of clients including those who are in the arts and cultural institutions, higher education institutes, non-profit organizations, commercial retailers, office workplaces, as well as residential.  The projects I have worked on have been recognized for their contribution to the community and sustainable design.
