"Kim was perfection, patient, talented and in addition to the AMAZING design of our entire first floor including an en-suite for our parents to move in with us, she was on point for the contractor and approvals. She took the time to coach us through the process and was with us during all reviews with the contractor and managing the final deliverables and with alignment of the budget. She was invaluable to our project and I cannot say enough great things about working with her and how much she was happy to allow us to lean on her and her experience.
