Meet the Founder

It’s my passion for textiles, craftsmanship, and all things uniquely beautiful that fuels my dedication to designing interiors. As a self-taught designer the foundation of my aesthetic is rooted in a functional floor plan highlighted by furnishings and accessories that bring character, joy, and often times a story to the design.

My design journey began over 25 years ago, initially working for a leading real estate broker managing the improvements of their corporate owned homes, then moving on to home staging and small scale design projects. I took the opportunity in 2011 to head up the buying and management of a local specialty boutique where I blended merchandising and creativity with the nuances of budgets, order procurement and retail management. With the added flexibility of having all 3 children in school and the desire to return to design, in 2016 I seized the opportunity and joined a prominent interior design studio outside of Minneapolis where I expanded my portfolio to full scale design projects. In 2025, feeling the time was right, I took a leap and revived my interior design business and that is where JG Design was founded.
