I met Karen when we were working as Interior Designer Consultants at Il Tocco Modern Living in McAllen Tx area. Karen is detail oriented and listen carefully to her clients needs.

Karen was excellent in her position as a Design Assistant at Cantoni. Her ability to multi-task and attention to detail attributed to her success. Karen was reliable and dedicated to her job and I would highly recommend her for as a Design Assistant position.

      I am an independant interior designer in Texas. I have worked primarily in the McAllen and Brownsville Area. My primary focus is Residential Design, but I have designed Commercial spaces.

      Constantly updating the catalog room, providing floor plans, detail sheets, and presentations to the Houston design sales team. My duties expanded to designing kitchens from bontempi cucine the last year I was there. It was a unique experience because it tested my CAD skills in detailed elevations, section cuts and drawings.
