About
MEET DONNA - a warm & client focused designer
My career began in education in Florida while raising three children, where I honed the skills of organization, communication, and leadership that continue to serve me today. After transitioning from the classroom, I embraced my entrepreneurial spirit and embarked on my first major project: the renovation of a 110-acre golf and country club. This was followed by the complete transformation of a 10-acre luxury vacation estate in Montecito, California.
Over the years, I founded, operated, and successfully sold two businesses before launching Grayfox Interior Design. My extensive experience in project management and procurement—paired with exposure to a wide range of architectural and interior styles—made the transition to a career in design a natural and fulfilling progression.
My mission is to be a steady, trusted guide—offering expertise, clarity, and reassurance at every stage of the design journey.
My greatest joy, however, comes from time spent with my husband of 43 amazing years, my three grown children, and my seven energetic & fun grandchildren.
