Designing since 2014 | Joined KSI 2022
Ann has been in the design industry her entire career. After architecture school, she interned in New York and Houston working on commercial and high-end residential projects. She returned to Michigan in 2014, and has been designing kitchens ever since.
Ann loves to design spaces engaging to the senses and the mind. She calls on her architectural background, travels, and creativity to develop innovative kitchens. With a keen attention to detail, she helps homeowners create beautiful spaces that also fit into their lifestyle. She’s experienced working with a variety of budgets, scales, and styles – from modern design to historic homes and flip projects. “I love solving the puzzle that is kitchen space planning,” she notes.
If you have a dream kitchen in mind, or a stack of sketches and inspiration boards, Ann will help you bring it all to fruition. If you aren’t quite sure where to start, come in and talk with her. She’ll help you figure it out and create an atmosphere perfectly suited to the way you live.
Ann is a member of the Grand Rapids Rowing Club, loves to travel and backpack, and is a docent at the Meyer and Sophie May House designed by Frank Lloyd Wright.
