About me

Interior design plays an important role in all our lives, especially when it comes to creating the perfect place to live, work, and play.

In the summer of 2005, I launched CK Initial Designs as a unique architectural and design firm, specializing in turnkey productions, which most firms no longer accommodate. My Bachelors Degree in Interior Design and my accompanying degree in lighting design, has given me the ability to create superior spaces with integrity and vision. My extensive experience in all disciplines of architecture and interiors, both residential and commercial, enables me to enhance the world through design.

Every one of my clients is treated as individual and unique, and the relationship I have with each client creates the foundation for the design process. I pride myself on paying extreme attention to detail, as well as offering unlimited diversified periods and designs. I have completed and will implement research on any style.

I measure success on how well I meet the needs of my clients by matching the proper designs, materials, and execution of each project. All through the Design-Build process, I guide you from the initial planning to the turn-key of your home.

Although my home base is in Monmouth County, New Jersey, I have produced design projects in Florida, Colorado, and the St. John Virgin Islands. I have also been published in and received the cover of American Dream Homes, as well as several other publications.

Everyone deserves a designer, and achieving my client's needs and desires is the difference between CK Initial Designs and other design companies. My goal is to help create your vision of how you want to live, culminating in a meticulously crafted home that embodies your desired lifestyle.
