MEET THE TEAM
ROBIN
OPERATIONS MANAGER
A San Diego native and former teacher, Robin loves the opportunity to use her organizational management skills in the design world. For her, the magic is in all the behind-the-scenes work that goes in to creating beautiful spaces. Spreadsheets, procurement, and long lists of tasks are her love language.
When she’s not managing operations here at KMI, she’s taking a hot yoga class, or hanging at the beach with her husband and two daughters.
LAURA
JUNIOR DESIGNER
Laura has always had a passion for people and art, so interior design became a natural career to pursue. She received her BFA with a concentration in Interior Design from Wayne State University. She’s been exploring different aspects of the industry ever since and fell in love with residential design. She loves the intentionality that comes with designing a space that feels like home.
When she’s not working on technical drawings and renderings, you can find Laura soaking up the sun and waves at the nearest beach or treasure-hunting at a thrift store with an iced cold brew and a pastry.
KMI PHILOSOPHY
We believe life is best lived when we are at peace in our home. Bringing a sense of peace and calm, while balancing comfort with functionality. These are just a few key elements that we strive for with every project we take on. Keri centers her designs around clean lines while incorporating natural textures - she seamlessly works with dimension and multiple elements to achieve the perfect marriage of your design goals and her sense of style. Keri is inspired by natural elements - driftwood from our beautiful Pacific Coast, fresh cuttings from a morning stroll, branches from the overgrown fields- all of these elements can effortlessly bring a sense of calm into your home. From traditional to contemporary, coastal, modern, bohemian, rustic and everything in between - we believe your home should be a true reflection of the life you were meant to live.
