Designing with Appliances in Mind and How to Avoid Costly Mistakes
We are excited to welcome Sandra Tierney as our guest speaker. With a unique background as a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America and former private chef in Los Angeles, Sandra brings a practical, real-world perspective to kitchen design. Her journey into kitchen and bath design led her to found Cabinets By Design in Escondido, CA, and her work has earned multiple national awards and recognition in publications such as Better Homes & Gardens. As an active NKBA member, Sandra is also passionate about mentoring the next generation of designers.
This CEU session will explain in depth the selection, placement, and installation process for all appliances. Make sure to bring your notebook to take notes of lots of tips and tricks. This is a great presentation for all levels of designers.
We look forward to an evening of learning, inspiration, and connection with our NKBA community.
