Who Am I?

As a driven, goal-oriented, and creative interior designer/decorator, I, Jannelle Rodd, am deeply passionate about transforming spaces and creating environments that inspire, elevate, and leave a lasting impression. I’ve dedicated myself to bringing beauty, functionality, and personality to every design project I take on. My journey in interior design began with an internship in 2021, where I gained invaluable hands-on experience and elevated my design skills to new levels. Graduating in 2023 with a degree in Interior Design and Decorating, I’m proud to have turned my passion into a profession that opens endless opportunities for growth and collaboration.

A few words about Jannelle, and how her passion turned into a business...

"Great design is not just about aesthetics; it’s about creating spaces that enhance your life."

Jannelle always had a natural eye for style and a deep love for creating beautiful, functional
spaces. What started as a hobby—rearranging rooms and helping friends with their homes—
quickly turned into a successful passion. Encouraged by the joy her designs brought others, she
took a leap and started her own interior design and decorating business. Today, Jannelle
transforms everyday spaces into personalized sanctuaries, blending creativity with comfort to
bring her clients’ visions to life.

Since 2024

History

2021
Education

I completed my studies in Interior Decorating with honors, gaining a strong foundation in design principles, color theory, and space planning. This academic training helped shape my design perspective and built the skills I rely on today.

2021-2023
Hands-On Experience

At just 19, I began an internship with a reputable design firm. There, I worked directly with clients and learned the day-to-day realities of the industry—project management, sourcing, client communication, and real-world problem solving.

2023
Expanding My Skills

To further broaden my experience, I worked both with home staging companies and other designers. These collaborations exposed me to a wide range of styles and taught me to adapt my design approach to meet different client needs and preferences

2024
Launching My Business

In 2024, I took the leap and launched my own interior decorating business. Based in Durham Region and serving the Greater Toronto Area, I began taking on my own clients and building a brand rooted in personalized, functional, and well-designed spaces.

Present
Growth & Success

In just one year, I’ve successfully completed five full design projects and continue to do home staging on the side. Every project has been an opportunity to bring a client’s vision to life— and to transform spaces into environments filled with warmth, character, and intentional design.
