After a successful and rewarding career in nursing, Colleen made the decision to pursue her lifelong passion for interior design. She continued her education through the New York Institute of Art and Design and earned her residential certification. Her deep appreciation for music and the arts fuels her soul and ignites her creativity while she credits a love of travel for her trained eye and providing a global perspective. Colleen has been enriched by the unique beauty and culture of each destination and believes that the broadening of the mind and opening of the heart that comes from both art and travel is one of her biggest inspirations for design.
Colleen and her husband put down roots in Charleston in 2015 where they feel fortunate to live with their three children, and sweet doodles.

Jen attended the prestigious Savannah College of Art and Design where she graduated cum laude with a degree in Interior Design and extensive studies in both Lighting Design and Art History. She began her design career in Boston's Back Bay, working for two of the city's top design firms. The experience gained from these two renowned interior designers laid a lasting foundation and is where she evolved into both a lead designer and project manager, overseeing projects throughout New England and beyond. Her work has been widely recognized and she was honored to have a project featured in Susan Sargent's "The Comfort of Color."
Jen resides in Charleston with her husband and two children and is forever grateful to call The Low Country her home.
