ABOUT ME
Hi! My name is Heather Taylor and my portfolio is a representation of all that I’ve learned and accomplished as an interior design student. As a cake decorator for 7 years, there are many transferable skills that I have learned to apply in my designs. Space planning, color theory, and visualization are a few of the many skills that I use daily. While studying at Texas State University I am learning to create spaces that feel comfortable, welcoming, and efficient. I am excited to continue my education to become a valuable asset to the interior design profession.
