Wendy Liss

Wendy studied Interior Design at Iowa State University before starting her career in Hospitality at Aumiller Youngquist. Wendy worked directly with restaurant owners on the Interiors as well as the procurement and installation of their fast-paced and unique projects. Each day was a different concept, and it was a thrill to see the spaces come to life and welcome patrons to enjoy the space and menu. She then started her own successful Hospitality Art Consulting business before launching her Multi Line Sales career. Though Wendy misses hands-on design, being a multi-line representative gives her the opportunity to collaborate with the world’s best design community and play with all of the pretty things from furniture to carpet, to lighting and more. With over 30 years of experience in a myriad of roles in Hospitality, Wendy brings a designer’s eye and project management skills to every project. When Wendy is not sharing her beautiful family of lines and products with clients, she spends time with her family (husband Ryan and sons Dylan & Zach + puppy Charlie) and friends in the Chicago area and in Highland Park, IL.

Kerry mead

Kerry began her career in Hospitality with the purchasing firm, Gerry Brown and Associates. As Purchasing Manager, she worked with clients, designers, and project managers to ensure the design was realized, while maintaining the budget and the project schedule. This area of knowledge with Purchasing is a great compliment to Wendy’s Design expertise. Having this background is an asset to being able to support our clients in their project needs. Kerry enjoys working on this side of the projects, having the ability to see designers’ beautiful work come to life, while seeing the purchasing side delivery successfully on their projects.

After moving from the city of Chicago, Kerry and her family have settled up north to Wisconsin. She enjoys spending time with her husband, their three girls and our dog (the favorite child).
