Heather Pando, Founder
I’m Heather, and my career has been shaped by a deep passion for art, design, and construction. I started my journey as an artist, creating bespoke pieces that told unique stories. As my career evolved, I transitioned into interior design and project management, where I could blend my artistic vision with my love for creating functional, beautiful spaces. Over the years, I’ve honed my ability to oversee luxury residential, commercial, and hospitality projects, focusing on construction project management and design execution.
I now specialize in managing high-end projects from start to finish, ensuring everything from budgeting and schedulingto contractor coordination is executed with precision. With over 20 years of experience, I’ve had the privilege of working on multimillion-dollar projects that allow me to combine my creative background with the structured demands of construction management.
While I’ve had experience designing and coordinating events—including some high-profile projects—my focus has shifted towards interior design and construction project management. I find fulfillment in leading teams, ensuring quality craftsmanship, and seeing the entire process come together. Whether it’s overseeing custom installations, coordinating contractor teams, or managing timelines, I’m dedicated to delivering high-end results that exceed client expectations.
My approach is hands-on, and I pride myself on problem-solving, ensuring every project runs smoothly and on schedule. It’s about creating spaces that are both functional and aesthetically inspiring—a true reflection of the vision I’ve developed over the years.
