What do you do at Model55?

I am responsible for overseeing multiple departments and working with their managers to make sure all our projects run smoothly. I also manage and create internal processes / programs based off a clients specific requests and I occasionally get to design a project.

What is your past experience?

I graduated from Wentworth Institute of Technology in 2008 with a degree in Interior Design. At Wentworth I did 2 Co-op programs with a small design company in Bolton, MA that specialized in designing Senior Living Communities. I have also worked in retail and visual merchandising as well as part-time in a Senior Living facility as an activities assistant.

What is the most inspiring part of your job?

I love that we enhance blank spaces for communities to inspire potential buyers. Without our models people would not see the full potential of a space or they would not feel confident moving a loved one in. Our team is a great group of creative thinkers and problem solvers and they all inspire me everyday.
