Nicole has a keen eye for quality and a strong commitment to providing a personalized customer experience. She finds great fulfillment in witnessing the joy her clients experience when they see their finished designs come to life. With meticulous attention to detail and a knack for adding the perfect finishing touches, Nicole is a valuable asset to the team. Her favorite part of the job is helping clients create beautiful spaces that enhance their daily living experiences. When she's not designing, Nicole enjoys indulging in sushi rolls, exploring new restaurants, and satisfying her love for shopping.

I guess you could say design is in my blood. My father and grandfather both worked as local home builders and when I was growing up, I would spend hours poring over their blueprints, imagining how the homeowners might live in those spaces and constantly making adjustments in my head to better suit their lifestyles. After all, laundry rooms should ALWAYS be bigger, right?!

After I’d spent over 15 years designing residential and commercial projects in the Northwest Indiana region, I founded SWATCH Interiors, the realization of my long-held dream of running my own design firm. It’s my deep knowledge of construction that really sets us apart, allowing us to go beyond mere decorating and instead truly customize and enhance the entire space to look, feel, and function for how each client wants to live in their home.

One of my favorite aspects of my work is getting to know my clients on a personal level, understanding how they live best, and building relationships based on trust, integrity, and honesty. Since our start in 2015, I have had the privilege of working with the most wonderful clients, many of whom have become great friends, and it brings me immense joy to help them transform their spaces into their dream homes.

As I look forward to wherever God leads this adventure, I am excited to have you be a part of my story. Let's work together to give you beautiful, personalized spaces that reflect your uniqueness and make your daily life even better!
