Carina holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Interior Architecture from Academy of Art University, San Francisco, CA. She has over twenty years of experience designing commercial and residential interiors with a project portfolio throughout the continental US, as well as South and Central America.

Born and raised in Sweden, she credits her Scandinavian roots as a major influence on her design aesthetic; a successful space is simple, highly functional, and without needing heavy elements to detract. She loves residing on the Peninsula, together with her husband and their 10 year old twins.
