About Us

Jenny is Momentum’s chief of design, with over a decade of experience creating welcoming, comfortable and practical spaces in commercial settings.

Her interest in interior design began in her teens when she interned for various residential and commercial interior designers. After completing her degree in interior design at Washington State University, Jenny was drawn to the unique complexities of commercial design.

"People spend as much time at work as at home, sometimes more. They deserve to spend that time in an environment that makes them feel good. This is what I strive for every day at Momentum.”

Jenny delights clients with her ability to balance creativity with structure, meeting strict commercial building codes in an aesthetically pleasing way. Her expertise includes visioning sessions, starting with a client’s idea and a blank piece of paper and ending with a practical plan to bring that idea to life.
