Jordynn

Associate Designer + Marketing

After many trial and error degree programs, Jordynn graduated from Iowa State University with a B.S. in Apparel Design. Her experience started in Technical Design for a large bridal designer in the Kansas City area, but found her heart for interiors working in design + marketing for a custom home builder.

She appreciates taking on the project management role to ensure every aspect gets executed smoothly and on time. Jordynn’s favorite part about being a designer is recognizing how different each project is and adapting to every client’s style + needs. Aside from ALT, you can usually find her on a patio with a beer in hand or cooking up the next project she can complete in her personal home.
