Clients have repeatedly invited Marlene to bring their vision into reality since 1997. She is an Allied member of ASID and trained as a Certified Living in Place Professional (CLIPP). She has served on the leadership team for the Fort Worth Design Community of ASID. She is also a member of the Ft Worth Interior Design Group, an invitation-only membership that provides monthly CEUs and collaboration with design industry professionals.

Attention to detail and building relationships with Clients, Contractors and Vendors has culminated in her business success today. She has worked on new construction projects since 2001, and primarily focuses on 8,000+ square foot custom homes.

Outside her career as an Interior Designer, Marlene enjoys her roles as wife to Sammy Small, mother to three adult children, and “Punker” to their five grands! Her community “give back” includes a Visual Arts program for children at their church, and her membership with Genesis Women’s Alliance and the Greater Keller Women’s Club. She is also a sorority woman (Alpha Chi Omega) and a loyal Texas Tech Fan (Guns Up!)
