Dawn René My name is Dawn René, and I was born and raised in northeast Ohio where most of my family still resides. I grew up loving colors and art in general. My pathway to Atlanta was paved when I was awarded a full scholarship to the Art Institute of Atlanta. After graduating I had already fallen in love with the big city – I couldn’t leave then. So I planted new roots and started doing design work at one of the Portman Companies. I have had the opportunity to see projects large and small, renovated or from the ground up, residential or commercial, contemporary or traditional. Besides loving architecture, colors and design, I love my three men. My husband and I enjoy all that Atlanta has to offer and are active in our small group at church and other volunteer efforts. I have one wonderful son, and I treasure our time together since he is now in college. Last is Bentley, my “other son” who is disguised as a Shih Tzu. My world keeps revolving because of these three guys. |
