In 2001 Evelyn was given the opportunity to purchase the property that contained her leased space. Due to the rapid business growth and her strong reputation within the community, Evelyn was able to procure the necessary funding and purchased the entire property.

Over the past 30 years Evelyn has built a multi-million dollar residential and commercial design business with an 8,500 square foot indoor showroom and a 10,000 square foot outdoor patio showroom. Interior Motives has been and will always be a 100% woman-owned business. Evelyn’s drive to make the design and implementation process easier for both Homeowners and Developers is the mechanism that has driven the success of Interior Motives as an organization.

In addition to running her business, Evelyn has been active in the Flemington Rotary, the Make a Wish Foundation, the Hunterdon County Chamber of Commerce and the Flemington/Raritan Business Association. She is a frequent donator of time, products or financial resources to various other causes in the community.

The combination of her excellent reputation and her willingness to give to important causes brought her together with ABC’s Extreme Makeover television show.
