Raised in Asheville with a father who is a general contractor in residential construction, Katherine grew up immersed in the construction industry.

Today, Katherine serves as RYSE Construction’s Interiors Manager and is a Certified Interior Decorator (CID) and licensed REALTOR®. She guides clients through the interior and exterior selections process, helping bring together finishes, materials, fixtures, and colors to create spaces that feel cohesive, intentional, and reflective of each client’s vision.

She thrives on organization, attention to detail, and making what can feel like an overwhelming selections process enjoyable and seamless for RYSE clients.
