Kelly grew up in Michigan, spending summers on the Great Lakes and winters nearby in the snow. She was intrigued early on by the beauty of nature, the home and how people live. The interest led her to a move to Jackson, WY and then to Encinitas, CA where she met her husband. Now based in Columbus, OH, her interests remain the same, but the importance of one’s own very special retreat even more so. Her designs may fall within the beautiful contrasts of a rugged elegance, an inviting modern, old with new or classic with a bit of the unexpected. Whatever the perfect mix may be, Kelly knows the importance of taking the time to really understand her clients needs and appreciations in life, because that is where the real transformation of space lies.
