Tracy Hickman aims to enrich the experience of coming home. As principal of Hickman Design Associates, Tracy works closely with her clients to accommodate their lifestyles, not just furnish their rooms. Tracy earned her bachelor’s degree from Michigan State University’s selective 50-student interior design program in 1988. During that time, she studied architecture and interior design in Milan, Paris and London, experiences that made her particularly sensitive to the architectural dictates of space and the possibilities they create. After obtaining her NCIDQ certification and spending four years with Chicago-based Vert and Associates, Tracy began Hickman Design Associates in 1992.
