I found Gabrielle during the most difficult of times. I was going through a separation/divorce, my life was in so much turmoil and I was lost as how to proceed forward. While I was looking for a place to live and accommodate my 2 children, I contemplated all that was ahead of me requiring my attention, not to mention my work as President of the business I run in the financial sector. I was feeling overwhelmed and went into a “Panic Mode”.
After some research, I came across Gabrielle’s website and scheduled our first meeting and hired her.
To start off, we visited an apartment I was considering and appreciated Gaby’s knowledge and insight as she quickly saw that the owner was not willing to repair or finish the unkept parts of the apartment, this would have added more stress not to mention the type of landlord I would be dealing with.
The second apartment had great potential and Gaby agreed. After signing my lease, we scheduled another meeting at the new apartment and discussed my preferences as well as budget and handed her the keys. At this point all I had in the apartment was a yoga mat.
I honestly don’t know how I would’ve done it without her --- actually I didn’t do anything! Gaby handled all the details from furnishing and decorating the entire apartment including my children’s room and home office as well as purchasing every single item from linens, tableware, appliances, plants and frames for my photos and children’s art. She organized everything into its place as well as scheduling delivery and assembly.
Gaby exceeded my expectations in creating an inviting and harmonious environment to call home which allowed me to embrace my new life with a more optimistic outlook. While relieving me of the stressful burden, this smooth transition also allowed me to focus on my company. I recently moved my company’s office and again hired Gaby to give it her designers’ touch!
I believe anyone going through a divorce or separation should know about her services as I’m certain it would be of great value to people going through a similar situation. And those professionals such as divorce lawyers or mediators that work in this milieu would be doing their clients a huge favor by referring them to Gaby.
I am forever grateful to Gaby as my designer friend and highly recommend her for her unsurpassed professionalism, understanding, integrity, vision, combined with creativity and compassion.
