INSTRUCTOR: Derek N. Parisi, Humanscale
While pursuing a degree in advertising from Southern Methodist University's renowned Temerlin Advertising Institute in Dallas, Eleanor Hodges spent a semester abroad in Spain where her long-time interests in -- and passion for -- interior design reemerged. After returning to Dallas, she secured an internship with Kara Adam of Kara Adam Interiors, part of a new wave of urban talent seeking to create timeless style infused with casual elegance. Serving as Kara's personal assistant on multiple residential design projects, Eleanor found her own niche and confirmed her intuition to pursue a second degree, in interior design. With strong family ties to Birmingham, she decided to continue her professional education at Samford University under the direction of Jeannie Krumdieck. As a student in the program, Eleanor continued to gain insight and experience in the field while working part-time for Cantley & Company, a bespoke kitchen design specialist. Eleanor's innate abilities have been confirmed as a dean's list student with the highest GPA in the interior architecture program for the past three years. After completing her senior thesis, Eleanor will graduate in May 2012.
