Michaela Ie

Michaela, our Senior Project Designer, and Anderson University alum, has been cultivating her love of interiors and plants for over 8 years. As an NCIDQ-certified designer, she excels at 3D modeling, digital graphics, and the increasingly rare skill of hand sketching. She finds her spark in the early phases of design where the possibilities feel endless, and a project’s visual identity begins; but she also looks forward to a project’s completion and standing in a space she once only imagined. Her work on faith-based projects is close to her heart, blending her spiritual life with her professional skills. If not for her career in design, she imagines life as a textile artist and small business owner, sourcing vintage textiles and quilts to create one-of-a-kind pieces.
