Working in the visual merchandising for large retailer such as JC Pennys, Agaci, and The Gap, Kathryn understands how important visual merchandising is and the impact it has on the consumer/buyer. She also attended the University of Arlington for Interior Design and earned her certification of course completion in 1990.
Her hobby when not working was Fine Art Photography which she developed a stunning portfolio and exhibited in several galleries in Austin. Her photography won awards such as People’s Choice, Best in Show, and Second Place in a International competition. Her work has also been published in Origins magazine, and Wyoming Wildlife magazine. Her love for nature and architecture were apparent in her body of work. She began taking professional photographs for real estate agents in 2008. Her natural ability to visual merchandise, as well as knowledge of design principles, naturally found her making suggestions on how to improve the properties before photographing them.
In 2011 Kathryn was invited to attend a RESA (Real Estate Staging Association) conference. This was the pivotal moment when she decided to align all her visual creative skills into one "Streamlined Vision." Kathryn opened Streamline Home Staging LLC in January of 2012.
Today, she remains hands on offering turnkey services from General Contracting, Interior Design, and Home Staging services.
