About ME

Joni was born and raised in the Midwest, but lived in different parts of the country while originally navigating a successful and demanding career in Financial Services. She has also traveled throughout Europe and has a particular affinity for Germany and Italy. No matter where she is living, Joni always ensured her home was a relaxing environment that gave her joy and reminded her of her travels and life experiences. She made sure the things she loved about San Francisco, the Napa Valley, Hawaii, the Midwest, Colorado, Germany and Italy were felt in her living spaces.

After Joni and her husband, Kevin, had their son Rafer, she took time off from her Financial Services career to raise their precocious little boy. As they moved throughout the United States, Joni dove deeply into designing their homes with Rafer on her hip. As Rafer grew he was her constant sidekick while she remodeled two homes in the San Francisco area and then multiple homes in Colorado.

Joni’s love of design flourished with each project. With numerous design and build successes under her belt, she opened Inspired Design by Joni to help other people realize living spaces they love, reflecting their passions, personalities, interests, ideas, and lives.
Joni believes everyone should live in spaces that are inspiring, beautiful and comfortable for them. She takes the time to get to know her clients so she can interpret their style and create customized function within their space utilizing unique color schemes and designs. With every project, she proves her belief that client centered design can be functional, beautiful and accessible to everyone, but most of all it can be: Inspiring!

Joni has a Diploma of Interior Design and is a certified True Color Expert.
