Nancy Riley, CKD |
Nancy was born with a desire to design. As a young girl she taught herself to knit, embroider, crochet and cross stitch as well as make her own clothes. Her flair for the theatre also developed through High School.
After graduating from the State University of Geneseo with a BA in Television Communication, she worked at various accounting jobs. She followed this degree with accounting courses at Hofstra University.
There was no room for creativity in the accounting profession, so Nancy decided to attend FIT(Fashion Institute of Technology) while working full time and received her Associates degree in Interior Design in 1988.
Nancy started to work at Five Star Lumber & Home Centers Inc in 1995 part time as the Controller doing accounting, but as her children became school aged, she started using her creative skills working in the kitchen design department as well. She earned her CKD as a Certified Kitchen Designer in June of 2007.
Over the years her passion for kitchen design has taken over her accounting duties but the practical application of her accounting background has created a unique mix of design and practical application.
She guides her customers not only in the kitchen layout but also in color preferences thru her love of designing with color. Her own kitchen is the culmination
of her desire to create a unique and practical space.
