I have worked in a variety of roles in the home furnishings and interior design industry for the last fifteen years. I love designing because it engages both hemispheres of the brain. Kitchens, more than any room, demand a union of utility and beauty, and call for a big-picture vision as much as an attention to detail. I take a holistic approach to finding smart, creative solutions to those challenges. When I’m not designing, I’m usually DIYing, to keep my hands as busy as my head.

As a Long Island local, she continued her career as an architectural designer and project manager in New York City and Long Island. She has been working in corporate architecture full-service firms for the past ten years. Katina worked on high-end corporate interior workplace design, new NYC facades, roof decks, residential interiors, new construction, schools, and banks. She values thoughtful design and communication while working with the client to create their design dreams.

Beautiful kitchen design should reflect a client’s past and project their future. With over 20 years in design, I strive to make each client’s dreams a reality, translating unique lifestyles into every personalized space. My journey began in animation, where I worked as a supervisor in Austin, TX. From there, I moved into graphic apparel and textile design, and later a construction certification led me to discover my true passion for cabinetry and kitchen design.

I draw inspiration from fine art, architectural history, and contemporary design—and some of my best ideas come from time spent in the kitchen with family. For me, every project is a chance to create something that truly embodies the heart of each home.
