Jessie Kowalski

Jessie plays a vital role in both the administrative and creative aspects of the firm. With a background in education and design, she assists with plan development, communication, and logistics. She works directly with clients to assist in the design process and behind the scenes to create drawings, source materials, and collaborate with contractors so that projects progress as efficiently as possible.

I will use Design Matters Home again for my next project."
