Ellen HF Planners workplace advisor

Workplace Advisor

Ellen is a Magna Cum Laude graduate from Virginia Commonwealth University. She has a BFA in Interior Design with a Minor in Anthropology.

Ellen is very passionate about making the details in design connect to one another in celebration of a client’s concept, culture, and identity.

She has had the opportunity to try her hand at many different sectors of design while in school and while completing internships that she had during her time in both Boston and Richmond. She believes that learning what life is like from others’ points of view makes for a better designer and human.

Outside of work Ellen loves to read, watercolor, and do a little bit of cooking. She is slowly shaking off her college eating habits!
