Hey there, I'm Jamie-
but you can call me
The Cabinet Nerd
The kitchen is the heart of the home and the island is the heart of the kitchen.
​
But smart design is luxury design, and that is the heart of everything I do.
​
As an independent kitchen designer, cabinetry consultant and 20/20 software instructor, I am a creative problem solver bridging the gap between design ideas and airtight technical layouts.
The Strategy
Behind the Space
I don't just select cabinet finishes, countertops or decorative hardware; I solve spatial puzzles.
​
My absolute obsession is transforming awkward, frustrating spaces into highly functional, smooth-flowing kitchens.
​
If your current floor plan feels like a daily argument and the math just isn’t mathing, let’s fix it.
​
I operate on a simple, foundational belief: bringing good people together over good food, but I keep them sane with brilliant, flawless design.
Smart Layout Logic: Designed to entertain 30+ guests with effortless flow—all while working within the original, un-moved utility footprints. .

Cabinetry Techinical Consulting & Support
Training for Aspiring Designers & Teams
I plan, think, and create functional floor plans, smart storage solutions, and 3D perspectives so you can see exactly how your space will feel and flow.
​
Whether you are a homeowner fighting an odd corner or a remodeler needing foolproof plans, I build layouts that make sense.
Consider me your technical safety net.
​
I offer B2B cabinet order audits because a single ordering mistake can easily cost thousands and weeks in delays.
I also provide temporary 2020 drafting support for designers and dealers, freeing you from the desk so your time is better spent client-facing.
I offer targeted training designed to get new hires and career switchers productive immediately.

Cabinetry 101: A foundational deep-dive into cabinet anatomy, modifications, and logic for aspiring designers before they ever attempt to draw or sell a project.
​
2020 Design Support: Structured guidance for when self-teaching fails or when onboarding needs to happen fast. I help your team understand the basics of this complex tool so they can build accurate quotes and field drawings without the steep learning curve.
Friends Don't Let Contractors Design Kitchens: Becasue they don't know what they don't know, this layout could have end up with a dry bar crammed into the left corner and the fridge door smashing into a wall.
The Cabinet Nerd mapped out the exact clearances and ergonomics to make this layout make sense.
