After graduating from the Sheffield School of Interior Design in New York, I founded Wren & Willow Interior Design Company. In 2008, after acquiring a general contractor's license, Wren & Willow, Inc. began as a design and remodeling company.

For the last 40 years, I have served in all levels of construction from running my own residential framing company to overseeing commercial projects as a superintendent and a project manager. After more than a decade in commercial construction, I decided to return to residential construction, joining Wren & Willow in 2009.

I received my Bachelor of Architectural Studies and Bachelor of Architecture degrees from Washington State University (go Cougs!). Five years later, I received my Washington State Architects License. My past work experience includes a wide variety of commercial projects as well as many custom residential projects.

Since I was a young girl I have loved interior design. I always knew it was my passion and what I wanted to do as a career. I began my design journey building and creating custom furniture designs. In 2012 I opened my own furniture company. A few years after that I went back to school for Interior Design and graduated from Clover Park Technical College with an AA in Interior Design. I do woodworking on the side but more as a hobby now. Creating beautiful things and sharing them with others will always be a passion of mine.

I have several years of experience working as an estimator and project engineer for remodels, custom homes, commercial T.I. (tenant improvement), and commercial new build projects. I have extensive experience in both the pre-construction and production sides of building.

Formerly a "Mad Men" Advertising guy, I decied to change careers, first working for a contractor and later a furniture company, because I wanted to be able to have more tangible evidence of my efforts at the end of the day. All told, I have around 30 years of experience in the building industry. I have also personally owned and restored three old houses in my life: an 1890s Victorian farm house, a 1902 Edwardian and currently a 1930s Arts and Crafts house built by my grandfather. I guess you could say I'm an "old house guy."

Construction is in my blood as I come from a long line of construction-based family members and have experience with all aspects of the industry, including my early work as head nail puller and straightener at age six. In 1992, I joined the Army and did six years as a Combat Engineer, where I learned earth work and leadership skills. Since leaving the Army, I have had the privilege of working for companies within this field who have allowed me to broad my knowledge level and experience.

I began working as a carpenter with my father and three of my uncles at age 17 and continued that for 6 years before making a move into retail to try something different. I really enjoyed that but I was eventually came back to construction to work with my father and two brothers, and that eventually led me to come and work for Wren & Willow where I can now use all my experience to manage jobs.

I have been in the construction industry for nearly 40 years, starting in home building and remodels in the 1980s. Around 2008, I worked with a dock and marina builder, as well as some commercial construction. I joined the Wren & Willow team as a superintendent in August 2022.

I have been in construction and remodeling for several years, including working for an established construction company, working independently, and installing construction barricades in Northern California before finally joining the Wren & Willow Team.

I have worked with wood since my first job, so naturally carpentry became a desired position for me.

I have been working in finish carpentry for over 15 years and in general construction for 10 years. During this period, I spent about 6 years designing and building cabinets. Because of this, I have a lot of experience with stains and finishes.

I have worked with Wren & Willow to different capacities since 2009, serving as a laborer, office manager, web designer, and human resources support. I have also worked in donor relations for an international non-governmental organization. I joined Wren & Willow full-time as the Business Manager in February 2021.

I started out as a sales and marketing analyst and fell into being a bookkeeper by accident. At the time, my son was small, and I wanted to cut back on work hours. In the process I found that I loved numbers and helping businesses keep their finances in order.

Wren & Willow has been a part of my life since I was born. I helped build the office. My handprints are in the cement under the floors. My goal is to be the 2nd president of Wren & Willow.

I have been with Wren & Willow for about 3 years. Or was it 4? I have a hard time keeping track of time because every day is so much fun! I’m so excited that I get to do this job. Don’t be alarmed if I yelp at you if you walk toward me, I just get a little scared sometimes. But don’t tell my boss. I really need this job.
