Jennifer Pierce
Louisville,KY
Summary
I have been professionally transforming spaces for over fifteen years. I have a bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts from the University of Louisville. My experience includes all aspects of both hard and soft surface residential and commercial design. I was an in-house design and renovation specialist for many sought after builders. My career started in kitchen and bath design, which still continues to be my passion. Over the years it has evolved into working with all hard and soft surfaces in a home but I am interested in retuning to my cabinet design roots.
