For the past 12 years she has volunteered at the Center for Grieving Children in Portland. When she is not at work, Joanne can be found in the garden or playing with her best pal Yoshi. Joanne welcomes the opportunity to meet with you to discuss your unique design needs. Contact her today » “When we moved from Cincinnati, Ohio, there were a number of things that needed to be done before the move. We trusted Joanne to have the house painted, a wall opened up, built-ins made and the master bathroom redesigned. When we moved in the renovations were nearly complete and within a short period of time we had new furniture, rugs, colors and window treatments. Not only did she source the furnishings, she helped us figure out a budget and prioritize all of the projects. Thanks Joanne!” —Jeff and Katie CUMBERLAND, ME
