Yes, my first name is SarahRose :) This is only my second winter here in Chicago. I grew up in southern California and earned my BA in History at University of California, Santa Cruz...the most beautiful campus...right in the middle of the forest and looking out to Monterey Bay. I am a Founding Mother of Sigma Alpha Epsilon Pi, Delta Chapter.
After graduating, I returned to SoCal and earned my Certificate in Interior Design from UCLA Extension, and will have my Master of Interior Architecture from Cal Poly this spring. I have been working in the world of custom for four years. My experience is in designing custom window treatments, bedding ensembles, and re-upholstery. Fabrics with beautiful patterns and colors, and those final touches of trim are my world! I’ve also worked as an Interior Design Assistant this last year in Chicago...which was fantastic. I can draw construction drawings, or render your room in 3D.
Working at Gold Leaf, I’m surrounded with all new mesmerizing materials. Don’t quiz me on the plethora of echeveria yet, but I can definitely help design the perfect arrangement for a project!
