New Team Members!!!

Yes - we have had the good fortune to be quite busy lately. What is even more fortunate is that this has given us the opportunity to strengthen the KSKC family by adding some truly talented and highly skilled team members. Thank you for embracing us and allowing KSKC the opportunity to provide each project the valuable contributions that these individuals offer. I will be updating our website soon with each new team member's personal bio - so I will keep introductions short and sweet for now.

Melissa is the KSKC Showroom Manager

Melissa Steiner joined our team in October '09 - just in time to help out with the Fall Upper King Design Walk. Originally from Atlanta, Melissa relocated to Charleston after earning a Culinary degree. While still in Atlanta, Melissa had the opportunity to sit on the other side of the table as a consultant for the renovation of her family's Atlanta home. As it turns out, the designer for this project was none other than yours truly!

Erica is a KSKC Lead Designer & European Kitchen Specialist

Erica Slowik, originally from Virginia (my home state as well), relocated to Charleston after working for almost a decade as a Lead Designer for one of the country's most recognizable contemporary kitchen companies in NYC. Erica has been very influential in the incorporation of KSKC's European product offering.

Logan is a KSKC Design Assistant

Logan Bond is a Charleston Native and a current a senior at The College of Charleston majoring in Historic Preservation. Logan also has family ties in Virginia where, ironically, we met for the first time just after his mother's Mini Schnauzer had given birth to a litter of puppies - my introduction to the breed. Our next meeting, almost 15 years later, was at the KSKC showroom where Logan applied for an internship position.

McGregor is a KSKC Project Design Manager

mcgregor@kingstreetkitchencompany.com

McGregor Jordan is not so much "New" as he is "Official" now. McGregor has a background in the Kitchen & Bath Industry through a local plumbing supply company - but is amazingly proficient in most all aspects of the industry. From cabinetry design & construction to Lighting design - McGregor has had his fingers in every aspect of both new construction and renovation projects. His technical proficiency no doubt is a reflection of background in Engineering. McGregor is an Auburn University graduate with a degree in Mechanical Engineering.

Hey....we know you!

Ok, ok - shame on me....I haven't "formally" introduced Leslie Burr...ooops I mean Leslie COLEMAN yet.  Well here goes - everyone, meet Leslie; Leslie, meet everyone.  Leslie actually decided to work with us several months ago, but decided to delay her official start until after her recent wedding (YAY....Congrats Leslie!!!!).  We felt pretty good that the odds were nowhere close to a "run-away bride" scenario - so she even already has her custom letterpress business cards with her new name already on them!  Click here for yet another good reason to procrastinate & put off what you should be doing right now....Leslie's Bio.  Not only is it an interesting read, I think you'll see exactly why we're so excited about how wonderful the direction that our baby is growing (the "baby" = KSKC - no news from Leslie if you were wondering).

Note to Leslie:  We are so happy that you decided to join the KSKC team & are already enjoying the pleasure of having you around the office.  I have no doubt that you are going to be a great asset to KSKC & we hope to be the same to you.

Welcome to the team!

We are pleased to welcome Charleston native William Towne to the King Street Kitchen Company design team.  KSKC friends will probably recognize William's face because he has been a strong supporter since our "Sneak Preview" event at last fall's Upper King Design Walk.  

William has been in the interior design industry for over 16 years, apprenticing under Max Lee - one of the founding members of the American Society of Interior Designers (A.S.I.D.). In addition to his overall interior design experience, William has honed his skills in the art of planning spaces for his clients to explore and expand their culinary skills for over 5 years.  William has worked throughout the United States on exclusive design collaborations, including projects in Tampa, Los Angeles, Scottsdale, Charleston, and the Highlands - Cashiers, NC area.  

William was formally trained in Studio Art at the College of Charleston, Design at The Art Institute of Atlanta, and Art Education at The University of South Carolina.  

Prior to his involvement in the design industry, William was a member of the Robert Ivey Ballet Company, traveling on tour to Russia, Denmark, Sweden, and Spain.  Additionally, William has traveled the length of the Grand Canyon doing environmental research, has traveled to Guatemala, Honduras, Belize, and Mexico during a 4-month backpacking adventure along the Mayan trail, and he has assisted in personal growth programs at a team building organization as a high events facilitator.  

We are honored to have William as a part of our team & are confident, based on his impressive list of repeat clients and referral business, that he will assist many KSKC clients through their projects with the same strong level of integrity with which this business was founded.  If you're interested in setting up an appointment with William, please e-mail him at william@kingstreetkitchencompany.com or call the showroom at 843-408-0543.
