Jane's Professional Timeline
Learning Design from Dad
From a young age, Jane was exposed to the art of interior design through her father, a skilled designer in his own right. This early influence not only shaped her aesthetic taste but also fueled her drive for professional success and financial stability.
Starting in Business
Armed with a business degree, Jane entered the corporate world, where she honed her skills in resilience and business acumen. Despite professional successes, she found the corporate landscape lacking in creative fulfillment. As the decade progressed, her innate love for design nudged her to explore her own design projects.
Joining Forces with Kevin
In the 2010s, Jane found a new avenue for her skills by joining her husband, Kevin, in his construction business, BB&R Design-Build. Recognizing the perfect blend of design and construction, she implemented organized processes that elevated their joint enterprise. Further cementing her credentials, Jane also secured her design degree from the Rhode Island School of Design.
Creating Dream Spaces
Today, Jane and Kevin operate as a dynamic team, marrying design creativity with construction pragmatism. With a disciplined approach that includes her signature "magic" presentations, Jane continues to craft spaces that resonate deeply with her clients. Her work skillfully pairs smart business sense with creative style. She believes the best design is both useful and good-looking, clearly taking cues from her dad's influence.
