Andrea is a graduate of Abilene Christian University with a degree in Interior Design. Her enthusiasm for design is ignited in the perfect balance of creativity & technicality and belief that as designers, we have the unique opportunity to create one-of-a-kind spaces that inspire and connect people. She loves working for a small company that shares a passion for designing with intent and purpose.

Originally from Grapevine, TX, Andrea currently calls the East Coast home. As KLD’s satellite team member, she is based in Boston, MA. She spends her free time playing beach volleyball, exploring coffee shops around the city, and scoping out the best spots for food and design. Her hobbies include traveling, music, and rewatching her favorite films.

When it comes to design, Andrea finds inspiration in every detail - big or small. She is particularly influenced by mid-century designers Alvar Aalto and Charles and Ray Eames, admiring their skill in creating pieces that stand the test of time.

Andrea continues to grow at KLD, expanding her design knowledge and cherishing the opportunity to collaborate with other creative individuals committed to making a difference.

Katie is a graduate of West Virginia University with a Bachelor of Science in Interior Design. She spent a semester in Italy where she studied architecture and Italian Renaissance art in between weekends of traveling. 

Her love for design started at a young age rearranging her bedroom and always experimenting with new paint colors. Katie’s design inspiration is largely drawn from Modern, Eclectic, and Art Deco styles. To her, interior design is the ability to create spaces that are both functional and aesthetically pleasing. 

Katie is originally from Northern California, and moved to West Virginia when she was in high school. Having lived on both the East and West coast, she was ready for a new adventure in Texas. In her free time she enjoys paddle boarding on Lady Bird Lake, exploring all the great food Austin has to offer, and taking her Corgi to Zilker Park. 

She is excited to expand on her interior design knowledge with such an inspiring and creative group of women at Kim Lewis Designs.

Caroline's journey in the design world began during her college years at the University of Texas at Austin, where she earned her bachelor's degree in Interior Design. Discovering the complexity and interconnectedness of the industry ignited her passion for design. During college, she ventured into high fashion publications while refining her set design skills, which formed the foundation for her role as a production designer for music videos and short films—a passion she has continued to pursue.

Caroline has had the opportunity to live in a wide variety of influential cities, including San Antonio, Boulder, and Madrid. Now, she immerses herself in Austin's unique culture and is an enthusiastic connoisseur of Austin’s culinary scene, savoring both its established classics and emerging delights. Beyond her creative pursuits, you can often find her mastering a new yoga pose or on the hunt for a one-of-a-kind pair of vintage pants.

Caroline's inspiration flows from various sources, including travel, graphic design, and fashion, fueling her creative spirit. She is excited to join a community of empowered women at the forefront of the design world. She wholeheartedly embraces and admires Kim Lewis Designs' values, from responsible sourcing to community-focused initiatives (not to mention the art of incorporating a great vintage piece).

Rylee graduated from Texas Tech University with a bachelor's degree in Interior Design, where she was honored with the Outstanding Senior Award for her dedication and achievements in the program.

Born in Austin and raised in San Antonio, Rylee's creativity was nurtured from an early age, leading her through diverse artistic paths and solidifying her passion for design. She is particularly drawn to hospitality design, as she loves crafting spaces that tell a story and leave a lasting impact on those who experience them.

Design has brought Rylee back to Austin, a city that continuously fuels her creativity. She is captivated by bold design, drawn to color and pattern, and enjoys blending vintage treasures with modern elements to create layered, story-driven interiors.

Beyond design, Rylee enjoys vintage shopping, discovering unique finds with rich histories. She loves exploring Austin’s coffee shops, spending time outdoors, and walking Lady Bird Lake. A passionate traveler, she finds endless inspiration in global cultures and design, constantly expanding her creative perspective through new experiences.

Rylee is excited about her future with KLD, where she has the opportunity to work alongside talented women who push design boundaries and share her passion for storytelling and travel through design. She is eager to continue growing in a creative environment that embraces bold ideas and brings meaningful spaces to life.

Gabi graduated  from the University of Texas at Austin with a degree in Interior Design. Her education has taught her to design with intention, striving to make inclusive and purposeful spaces for all.

Born and raised in Austin, Gabi enjoys all things Austin. If she's not exploring the best food spots, spending time outdoors with family, or indoor rock climbing with friends, she's at home cuddled up with a good book.

Most of Gabi's interior design inspiration originates from the modern eclectic movement, always gravitating towards fun color palettes, mixed patterns, unique furniture styles, and an overall bold aesthetic. Her traveling journey is only just beginning but quickly inspiring her creativity in design as well.

Her role at Kim Lewis Designs continues to ignite her passion for accessible and sustainable design. She is more than ecstatic to keep growing with a team that holds the same thoughtful design values as her!

Ellen is a graduate of the University of Texas at Austin. She believes our surroundings have a huge impact on how we feel, live, love, create, think, and beyond. She is proud to be on the Kim Lewis Designs team and shares in the KLD passion for creative, thoughtful design and responsible, conscientious sourcing. Design can and does change lives!

A Corsicana native, Ellen has spent most of her life in Texas. But ever since her first experience living abroad at 18, she has been passionate about international travel, with frequent trips to Latin America and Europe. Portugal is her current fixation for design inspiration!

Outside of Kim Lewis Designs, her joys and interests are many, and include rock climbing, morning swims at Barton Springs, Henry David Thoreau, quality time with family and friends, and coffee and pastries.
