Rhonda Kifer is a wife, interior designer, instructor and certified interior environment coach who has been transforming homes into beautiful living for over thirty years.

Known for creating interior spaces that are classic yet timeless, Rhonda is skilled in listening and understanding the needs and desires of her clients.  She advises and helps them strategically combine the elements of design to produce an atmosphere that makes them feel good about the home they live in everyday. 

Rhonda's philosophy on decorating is that it's more than acquiring furnishings and collecting things - it's about creating a home that's safe and pleasing to the senses; where one's spirit is nurtured and hospitality is extended to others.  She also believes our homes should have simplicity and balance, void of excess clutter, to truly enjoy our surroundings to the fullest.

Rhonda completed her education in Interior Environment, Interior Design and Specialized Technology at The Chicago School of Interior Design and Decoration, The New York School of Interior Design CE and PSID.  She also received her certification in Interior Environment Coaching through the DeGangi Group.  She is a member of the Interior Design Society, The Certified Interior Decorators International Inc., and Decorators Alliance of North America.

Rhonda is the author of Interiors In Season® decorating, and her work has been featured in publications such as The Almanac, Washington Observer-Reporter, The Pittsburgh Post Gazette, The Peters Township Source, The South Fayette Source and The Pittsburgh Tribune Review.

After accepting an invitation to develop a series of design classes for a local college, Rhonda was hooked on education and the process of facilitating those interested in learning about professional interior decorating.  For more than a decade, she has taught many programs through her own decorating workshops, for the Community College of Allegheny, and is an instructor and speaker for the DeGangi Group.

An industry contributor, Rhonda serves as the East Coast Advisor for the Decorators Alliance of North America and as the Team Advisory Chair for Certified Interior Environment Coaches.
