Questions?
You can start chatting with Tamika before you get started.
I’m an interior designer, project manager, retail professional, entrepreneur, and U.S. Army veteran with experience spanning creative design, client services, sales, project execution, and career development. My path has taken me from military service to higher education and into the design industry, where I’ve worked with clients on everything from individual spaces and material selections to larger design concepts and project planning. I earned my BFA in Interior Design from the Savannah College of Art and Design, building on an associate degree in Interior Design, while also studying business management, entrepreneurship, advertising, and branding. I bring both creative and practical thinking to the people I work with. I’m especially good at helping someone take an idea that feels overwhelming, break it into manageable pieces, identify what matters most, and determine what to do next.
Tamika also coaches for Interior Design, Transitioning from the Military, Project Management, and Career Coaching. View all.

Tamika’s Retail & Merchandising Qualifications
Experience level: Associate
My retail and merchandising experience combines interior design expertise with firsthand experience in customer-facing home furnishings and improvement environments. I've worked with customers through the full decision-making process, from identifying needs and selecting products to developing design solutions, navigating budgets, solving problems, and helping turn inspiration into purchases and completed spaces. My experience also extends beyond individual transactions. I've developed ideas for improving the retail customer experience, created processes and resources to support more effective workflows, and worked across design, sales, operations, leadership, and vendor relationships. I can help professionals strengthen their approach to consultative selling, customer experience, merchandising, design-driven retail, and translating creative expertise into measurable business value.

Why do I coach?
I coach because helping people recognize what they’re capable of has always come naturally to me. Long before I considered calling it coaching, I was the person classmates, coworkers, friends, and family came to when they needed another perspective, help developing an idea, preparing for an opportunity, or figuring out their next move. My own career has not followed a perfectly straight line. I’ve transitioned from the military, returned to school, changed industries, built a career in design, worked while completing my education, developed business ideas, and learned how to advocate for myself professionally. I know how valuable it is to have someone who can see possibilities you may not see yet, while also helping you turn those possibilities into an actual plan. That is the kind of support I want to give my clients.
