"I have met with Marianne three times & she has been so helpful! We are embarking on an addition /remodel of a complicated old house & her insight & ideas have been so valuable! She is so warm and easy to talk to and I always feel so comfortable, even sharing my messy, unfinished spaces! I am sure I will continue to utilize her experience as we work through our many projects. I can’t say enough about how happy I am to have had her as a resource. Highly recommend! "

"I loved my call with Marianne! She was very approachable, warm, and positive. We got through all of my questions and she sent a follow-up note with a recap and additional thoughts. We focused on the exterior of my home this time and I will definitely schedule more calls with her when I am ready to talk about the interior. Would highly recommend! "
