Donna is one of very few New Zealanders to have graduated from the world-renown Inchbald School of Architectural Interior Design located in Chelsea, London. When Donna’s partner took up a senior posting in London, Donna decided to formalise her Interior Design skills, and completed a full year’s study at Inchbald.

Interior Design represents Donna’s third career and her true calling. Donna’s family are all very talented in the field of artistic endeavour.In 1998, as reward for exceptional work as Company Manager, Donna was offered a one year sabbatical to pursue her dreams.

She established a small company producing New Zealand manufactured high-quality bed linen and this venture led Donna to concentrate on her passion of interior design. In 2000, Donna travelled to London to study at Inchbald School of Architectural Interior Design. In 2001 she graduated with a Post Graduate Diploma in Architectural Interior Design from Inchbald School of Design and the University of Wales.

She is eligible for distinction if she proceeds to Dissertation, but chose instead to gain work experience in England and Europe before returning to settle in NZ permanently.
