Meet Our Team | INSIDE STYLE HOME<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Jill Abelman CEO\/PRINCIPAL DESIGNER My career started with a passing comment when I was 24. A visitor to my new apartment exclaimed with delight over the colorful pieces, vibrant art, and the rare Art Deco Bar I had found and restored. Overstuffed fluffy white sofas with multi-colored handpainted pillows and my rented black lacquer piano which was really more \u201cfor looks\u201d as I never really learned to play more than a few songs lol, but I justified, it\u2019s good to have goals! The super chic sofas had been put on \u201clayaway\u201d until I could afford them \u2026 I can still remember the excitement of delivery day after the 6 month payment period! The comment was, \u201dHave you ever thought of going into interior design?! If you\u2019re interested, I know someone who manages a design school." As funny as it sounds now, that hadn\u2019t even been on my radar! If you can imagine, HGTV wasn\u2019t even a thing yet! and I had never considered design as a design path. However, within hours of visiting the design school, I was completely intrigued and over the moon about finding a career path I could really sink my teeth into. After finishing school, I was willing to do anything to make this career path come true and the journey included.. - Working for a furniture importer - Traveling to Indonesia was a highlight to pick pieces for the line. - Designing model homes for companies in LA, Orange County, and San Diego. - I worked in sales and design for the model home companies, learning all about both sides of the business I was wholeheartedly pursuing. - Working in a furniture store while juggling 2 other jobs to make rent.. - And later, when I became more financially stable, I opened a boutique furniture and accessories store on Pacific Coast Highway in Laguna Beach while also designing for clients. I\u2019ll skip the tragic but valuable business lessons I learned in Laguna Beach and share that moving to San Diego was a big scary change I decided to make when my store was purchased by another entity and I was forced out.. But I believe that the Universe always has a plan for you if you have good intentions and follow your heart. Lo and behold, San Diego was not only a great stepping stone for my career, but more importantly, I quickly met Marc - my husband of 25 years and the love of my life. We had already talked about marriage when 2 years later, I was recruited to Las Vegas to work for a National Homebuilder. The offer was too good to pass up! So after one year of long-distance dating, Marc agreed to reluctantly leave his beloved beach lifestyle to move to the Desert and we were married. It took some time for him to recalibrate, but now he can\u2019t see living anywhere else! Life is funny like that. We dreamt of the day when we would have a couple of kids, perhaps open a business, and live life on our own terms, instead of asking for vacation days as you do in Corporate America. We made it happen in 2004 with creative financing and determination and crafted our Mission Statement of \u201cCreating extraordinary experiences while enriching people\u2019s lives through design.\u201d We moved downtown to the Arts District in 2011 after we purchased our building. It was a bit \u201crough\u201d down here at that time, but Marc\u2019s vision was clear and he was positive that the area would \u201ccatch up\u201d to his vision. (It did!) It\u2019s still Home for us and we are grateful and continually inspired by the wonderful community of artistic people we have met downtown while doing what we love. Today, we find ourselves working in homes I only dreamt about back when I started this journey. We typically work for clients who have several rooms or an entire home to furnish or remodel and I still LOVE the process and discoveries we make each time. I love to impart the knowledge and share the resources that have taken over 30 years of steady work to establish for the best results with the least stress to our wonderful clientele! Our focus is solely on Residential design. Nothing makes me happier than making our clients comfortable and ecstatic in their homes - the most sacred place on earth, in my opinion. I have been fortunate to design some amazing homes but the main focus is enjoying the time spent with our clients. Our main criteria is working with someone we can not only create with but also share an occasional belly laugh! The process is always born out of the joyful collaborations between us and our clients to create a home that is truly restorative, beautiful, and unique. This year is our 20th year in business and we are still enjoying every moment! MARC ABELMAN CFO I run the business of InsideStyle. If you have heard of the \u201d left brain \/right brain\u201d analogy, I am more suited to the analytical and methodical tasks as opposed to Jill who is the creative leader and now free to focus solely on Design. This has been a winning formula for us since we opened the business in 2004. The idea is to provide Jill and the team with more time for our clients and design and not on the day-to-day tasks of running a business. I also curate connectivity and community outreach and have worked tirelessly to put the Arts District \u201con the map\u201d so to speak. Las Vegas has so much talent in the arts and it is one of my great passions, promoting our local artists and raising awareness of all the talented artists who live and work right here in Vegas! As any business that intends to sustain itself, I feel it must give back to the community and should be involved. Company culture is also at the forefront of my mind and one of my goals has always been to create a team that can move the business forward, in not only in the most efficient manner but also the most enjoyable way. I have been the curator and director of some incredible \u201cfield trips\u201d as we call them and educational adventures. Sometimes, it is as simple as visiting local galleries and hearing artists explain their process and other times, we have made trips to New York and Paris in the never-ending search for greatness in design and culture. Travel continues to be our biggest inspiration and we make space for it several times during the year to keep our approach and our offerings fresh, relevant, and bespoke. Quality of life is at the core of everything for the InsideStyle family. We often refer to our life and company culture as \u201cliving in the bubble\u201d and that bubble is full of joy, laughter, creation, inclusivity, and love. What else matters? HAILEE DALE PROJECT MANAGER\/DESIGN ASSISTANT Hailee is our extraordinary Project Manager and Designer in training. When Hailee was introduced to us, we were in the middle of a big company transition, as our former project manager of 8 years was pregnant and going to stay home afterward with her baby. We polled our close friends to see if they had any leads to fill this key position. We have known Hailee\u2019s family for YEARS.. as our daughters went to school together and when we asked our friend and her Mom Eileen about prospects for us, she said, \u201cHow about my daughter Hailee?!\u201d Funny enough, we had never met THAT daughter!.. Hailee is the oldest of 5 siblings! Within minutes, Hailee called us, and about 10 minutes into the call, we knew immediately that she was \u201cthe one!\u201d With a Can-do attitude, she quickly cracked the code of keeping track of managing multiple projects and keeping ALL the details in our design process straight. And there are a ton of details! As an added bonus, she has a wonderful design aesthetic which makes her a perfect fit for us and this profession. Similar to Jill\u2019s start, Hailee wasn\u2019t working in the design field until she came to work for us. She was a mortgage broker! But spent all her spare time creating beautiful things and had a passion for making her home and others gorgeous. Her keen organizational abilities have taken Insidestyle to a new level and she often designs side by side with Jill. We appreciate her on so many levels. Her tireless work ethic, playfulness, and strength make her a perfect fit. Did I mention we love to have fun?! When you call our office, she typically answers the phone, so make sure and say Hello! We all look forward to meeting you! Hailee\u2019s comments: InsideStyle is the perfect atmosphere to feed and nurture my soul and expand my creative abilities. Working in such a creative space with other like-minded creatives allows my everyday job to never feel like \u201cwork\u201d and for that, I feel incredibly lucky!\u00a0\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lasvegasinteriordesign.net\/meet-our-team\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Meet Our Team | INSIDE STYLE HOME\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Jill Abelman CEO\/PRINCIPAL DESIGNER My career started with a passing comment when I was 24.

It\u2019s still Home for us and we are grateful and continually inspired by the wonderful community of artistic people we have met downtown while doing what we love. Today, we find ourselves working in homes I only dreamt about back when I started this journey.

If you have heard of the \u201d left brain \/right brain\u201d analogy, I am more suited to the analytical and methodical tasks as opposed to Jill who is the creative leader and now free to focus solely on Design. This has been a winning formula for us since we opened the business in 2004. The idea is to provide Jill and the team with more time for our clients and design and not on the day-to-day tasks of running a business. I also curate connectivity and community outreach and have worked tirelessly to put the Arts District \u201con the map\u201d so to speak. Las Vegas has so much talent in the arts and it is one of my great passions, promoting our local artists and raising awareness of all the talented artists who live and work right here in Vegas! As any business that intends to sustain itself, I feel it must give back to the community and should be involved. Company culture is also at the forefront of my mind and one of my goals has always been to create a team that can move the business forward, in not only in the most efficient manner but also the most enjoyable way. I have been the curator and director of some incredible \u201cfield trips\u201d as we call them and educational adventures.

A visitor to my new apartment exclaimed with delight over the colorful pieces, vibrant art, and the rare Art Deco Bar I had found and restored. Overstuffed fluffy white sofas with multi-colored handpainted pillows and my rented black lacquer piano which was really more \u201cfor looks\u201d as I never really learned to play more than a few songs lol, but I justified, it\u2019s good to have goals! The super chic sofas had been put on \u201clayaway\u201d until I could afford them \u2026 I can still remember the excitement of delivery day after the 6 month payment period! The comment was, \u201dHave you ever thought of going into interior design?! If you\u2019re interested, I know someone who manages a design school.\" As funny as it sounds now, that hadn\u2019t even been on my radar! If you can imagine, HGTV wasn\u2019t even a thing yet! and I had never considered design as a design path. However, within hours of visiting the design school, I was completely intrigued and over the moon about finding a career path I could really sink my teeth into. After finishing school, I was willing to do anything to make this career path come true and the journey included.. - Working for a furniture importer - Traveling to Indonesia was a highlight to pick pieces for the line. - Designing model homes for companies in LA, Orange County, and San Diego. - I worked in sales and design for the model home companies, learning all about both sides of the business I was wholeheartedly pursuing. - Working in a furniture store while juggling 2 other jobs to make rent.. - And later, when I became more financially stable, I opened a boutique furniture and accessories store on Pacific Coast Highway in Laguna Beach while also designing for clients. I\u2019ll skip the tragic but valuable business lessons I learned in Laguna Beach and share that moving to San Diego was a big scary change I decided to make when my store was purchased by another entity and I was forced out.. But I believe that the Universe always has a plan for you if you have good intentions and follow your heart. Lo and behold, San Diego was not only a great stepping stone for my career, but more importantly, I quickly met Marc - my husband of 25 years and the love of my life. We had already talked about marriage when 2 years later, I was recruited to Las Vegas to work for a National Homebuilder. The offer was too good to pass up! So after one year of long-distance dating, Marc agreed to reluctantly leave his beloved beach lifestyle to move to the Desert and we were married. It took some time for him to recalibrate, but now he can\u2019t see living anywhere else! Life is funny like that. We dreamt of the day when we would have a couple of kids, perhaps open a business, and live life on our own terms, instead of asking for vacation days as you do in Corporate America. We made it happen in 2004 with creative financing and determination and crafted our Mission Statement of \u201cCreating extraordinary experiences while enriching people\u2019s lives through design.\u201d We moved downtown to the Arts District in 2011 after we purchased our building.
