“I first met Donna when I moved to our new Condo in California from Philadelphia, Pa. Being new to the area I had no idea of where to start or look for sources to make our condo a home. Donna came highly recommended and lived up to the praise. We made a large profit on the design work and took Donna with us to decorate our new home. I work and "run things by Donna to this day.”.
