After graduating with her BBA in Marketing from Villanova, Chelsea earned her stripes in the business world. Chelsea’s creative talents and passion for design led her to complete her MFA in Interior Architecture at GWU. Now, she spends her days dreaming up designs full of rich, tonal textures. When she’s not creating, Chelsea loves spending weekends with her toes in the sand and running around Arlington (literally) with her husband and their Bernedoodle, Bear.
Fueled by iced coffee and Sunday brunch, Courtney is a former fashion merchandising professional turned interior designer. Since earning her MFA in Interior Architecture at GWU, Courtney has developed her skill set, designing intentional spaces that feel equally elevated and welcoming. Outside of designing, Courtney enjoys beach days, college football, and exploring the city with her husband and their toddler, Asher.
Liza earned her BFA from Samford University in Interior Architecture and holds a minor in Studio Art. Her love of visual art and architecture bring a strong foundation to her designs. Liza came to us all the way from Atlanta and while she loves the south, she’s enjoying her life in DC. When she’s not at the Studio, you can find her painting, running, traveling, or reading the latest thriller.
Concetta (or "Chetta" as we like to call her) earned her BBA in Finance from James Madison University and holds an MBA from UMD. Before joining the studio, she had a robust career in the financial services industry. Her extensive expertise plays a pivotal role in streamlining our financial processes. Chetta loves good wine, traveling, and exploring the city in her free time. On the weekends, you might spot her cruising around DC on a bike with her three young children and husband or enjoying a glass of something sparkling.
Callie earned her BBA in Computer Information Systems from James Madison University. She began her career as an IT auditor before discovering her passion for interior design through post-grad classes. Today, Callie brings her love for beautiful things and knack for seamless systems to our brand, shaping the way we present our work to the world. She’s also, by default, our resident IT expert. On the weekends, you'll find her traveling and enjoying time with her husband and their pup, Levi.
