In the field of Design, Anne could easily say; “Been there.. Done that !”
Over the course of her career, she has designed everything from fashion jewelry, to retail store interiors.
Beginning in 1982, she and her husband and partner designed and manufactured a line of high end fashion jewelry that was sold in some of the finest retail stores, such as Saks Fifth Avenue , Nordstrom, and Macy’s . These innovative pieces were often featured in the editorial pages of Vogue, Bazaar, and Glamour. In 1990 she designed and built out a specialty retail home accessories boutique , VERO, in San Francisco. This store featured products designed and manufactured by Anne and her husband, Frank. The VERO line of personal care products was awarded “Best new Product” at the prestigious Accent on Design section of the New York Gift Show, and was featured in the New York Times.
After taking some time off the see her two children through school, Anne turned to her first love, home interiors, and started her own specialty paint and color consulting business in the San Francisco area.
After making several visits to spend time with friends in New Mexico, Anne and her husband Frank, decided that the time was right for them to make a life change, and when they put their home in California on the market, Anne staged it herself . The house sold in nine days for 25% above the asking price ! There was a clue there somewhere !
Anne is now a Certified Home Stager with her company Casa Vero, based in Placitas, New Mexico !
She is looking forward to applying her award winning skills with this innovative art in the business of home sales.
