Our Collective Excellence
Alex DuBois
Originally from Des Moines, Iowa, Alexandra moved to San Diego to attend The Art Institute, graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Interior Design. She began her career as a paint color consultant before gaining experience in furniture, tile and material showrooms, and drafting for a design-build company. She later moved into a designer role, working on residential projects ranging from small renovations to large ground-up homes, as well as restaurants and hospitality spaces throughout San Diego County. Alexandra recently traded San Diego for Idyllwild, a small mountain town between Los Angeles and Palm Springs, where she lives with her two cats. When she’s not designing, you can usually find her hiking, backpacking, camping, or planning her next adventure.

Interior Designer
Cheryl Slade
Cheryl holds a Bachelor of Science in Interior Design from University of Southern Mississippi and a Post Baccalaureate in Construction Management from Louisiana State University. With twenty years in design and project management, she has left her mark on single family properties, multi-family properties, boutique hospitality, boutique veterinarian practices and boutique pet B-N-Bs. Cheryl says the reason she smiles so much is because of all the time she’s spent designing boutique dental practices. Vision, creativity and space planning are only part of her process. Cheryl finds her discipline of planning the details (including budgeting and scheduling), oversight, and execution are what label her work. She served along the Gulf states with her furry associates Boheme and Bourgeois.
