While at the Architectural Firm, Cherie was able to utilize her professional and leadership skill designing and directing architectural and interior design teams in multiple national and international residential, resort, hospitality, and commercial design projects. In a continuous effort to develop professionally, Cherie reopened her interior design firm in 2009, Storm Designs, providing new and returning clients with passionate sophisticated designs tailored to their individual lifestyle. Designing projects nationally in renowned resort areas like the Aspen, Jackson Hole, and the Outer Banks only enhances her perpetual devotion to providing design solutions that are aesthetic and provocative as well as functional.
