A 2004 graduate of the Interior Design program at Arapahoe Community College, McKinley gained valuable work experience at one of the Denver Design District's oldest family-owned showrooms - Charles Eisen & Associates.  After three years in sales, McKinley began working alongside a well-established interior designer assisting with all aspects of residential and commercial design.  Nine years and two children later, McKinley launched her own design business in 2015 with a fresh perspective for creating beautiful, timeless environments, unique to each of her client's wants and needs. McKinley's passion and inspiration lies in the simplistic philosophy of "form follows function."
