Chelle, Senior Principal of White Lotus Design Studios, has worked in the design industry since 2003, bringing extensive experience across hospitality, multifamily, food and beverage, and senior living. She began her career at Ricca Newmark Design, where she spent seven years building strong industry relationships and advancing from junior designer to project designer.

​

Since establishing her own design firm in 2015, Chelle has built lasting client relationships by creating thoughtful, distinctive interiors while remaining attentive to each project’s budget and broader business goals. She takes pride in delivering an exceptional client experience at every scale. Her ability to listen closely, translate a client’s vision into a cohesive design, and lead projects with clarity and attention to detail has become a hallmark of her work.

​

Beyond her design practice, Chelle is a dedicated advocate for education and is passionate about mentoring emerging professionals to strengthen the next generation of design talent—and the industry as a whole.

​

Outside the studio, Chelle can often be found in the kitchen, baking or cooking up a storm. She also loves family game nights, binge-watching a good television series or movie whenever possible, and, of course, rooting for the Broncos!
