Hi there.
I'm Dee, a multi-disciplinary designer based in New York City. For over thirteen years, I've had the pleasure of working with clients to conceptualize and visualize their brand's potential. From big-picture strategy to the handcrafted detail of a door pull, I'm immersed in the design process. I'm inspired by bold graphics, deeply saturated colors and architecture that feels like it has a soul.
I've been busy.
After earning a BFA in interior design from the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT), I gained experience at a number of top architectural firms, including Barteluce Architects, a small luxury retail group, and Callison, an award-winning firm with clients both local and international. For several years, I consulted on a number of store & restaurant design projects, providing creative direction and supervising implementation.
Currently, I'm Head of Design Trends & Concepts at Wayfair. That means analyzing and translating design trends for Wayfair’s customer, creating visual tools and guidelines that support implementation to elevate brand presentation across all channels. It's a blast.
