"I love design since it allows me to be both pragmatic and creative simultaneously - to construct something functional and beautiful."
Client Testimonial
"I had a very specific idea of the aesthetics, and they were fully responsive to it and understood what I liked. They didn't try to convince me of things I would not like; they understood my taste was not for everyone. They came up with something very lovely and functional. I have a very specific aesthetic and Hope and Melissa were very responsive, respectful, and encouraging of my design, which made my dream kitchen come to life."
Experience
I started working with Case Design/Remodeling in 2014 and have been in the remodeling industry since 2006. Each client I work with brings a unique view point and a distinct set of concerns that need to be addressed. Collaborating to help solve those issues in their home, which will drastically change and enrich their daily lives, is very fulfilling. The ultimate success is to see the different elements of the design come together to achieve a cohesive style, while functioning better than before.
My free time is spent swimming, doing yoga, visiting farmer’s markets and estate sales. I’m also passionate about sustainable living and design, fostering dogs and exploring Virginia wine country with friends.
