About Your DeGangi Certified Instructor - Rhonda Kifer

 

Bringing beauty, comfort and happiness into the lives of my clients is what decorating has always meant to me.  It's all about improving the quality of life for others!

Growing up with a father in the construction industry and a mother in the beauty business... it's no wonder interior design and decoration was a natural career choice!  My passion started at a young age, and I have been promoting and creating beautiful homes professionally for 30 years.

After accepting an invitation to teach a design class at a local college nearly ten years ago, I was totally hooked on education and the process of facilitating those interested in learning about professional interior decorating. 

As principal of Rhonda Kifer Design Associates and founder of Decorating Workshops, I have combined my years of experience and skills as interior designer, project manager, business owner and instructor to offer adult learners desiring to succeed in the interior decorating industry, the very best in training!

Rhonda Kifer is an Instructor for the Community College of Allegheny County South Campus, a Certified DeGangi Instructor for The DeGangi School of Interior Decoration Professional Certitfication Programs and Training in Pittsburgh, and sits as the East Coast Advisory Board Chair.

She is the author of  decorating and her work has been the subject of many public interest articles in newspapers and special home magazine publications.

Here is a testimonial from one of many of Rhonda's appreciative clients:

"Rhonda... you are extremely talented and the next generation of interior designers will benefit greatly from your knowledge and experience.  Our lives - not to mention our house - have certainly been enriched by our relationship with you.  You saw the potential in our house and helped turn it into a beautiful home.  We have thoroughly enjoyed working with you over the last ten years."
