At KDP, Katie approaches each project with a focus on both style and functionality. She guides her clients through every step of the design process, from selecting flooring and cabinet finishes to choosing paint colors and beyond. For those unsure of where to begin, Katie’s advice is simple: start with what inspires you, whether it’s a striking countertop sample or a captivating tile backsplash, and let the rest fall into place.

Proficient in 2020 design software, Katie utilizes her technical skills to craft layouts that seamlessly integrate with the architecture of each home while meeting the unique needs of its occupants. Her meticulous planning ensures that every project stays within budget without compromising on quality or aesthetics.
