We Have a Scholarship Winner!

Congratulations to Edna Desulme, winner of our Savvy Home Store Scholarship! Born in Jamaica and raised in Haiti, our scholarship winner Edna is currently pursuing a Masters of Interior Architecture at Florida International University.

Edna’s bright academic history, numerous business ventures (she has founded three businesses in Haiti), and top notch interior layouts made her an exemplary candidate. With her progressive design ideas and entrepreneurial spirit, Edna immediately caught our eye. In addition to her design expertise, Edna is also an accomplished photographer and experienced marketing manager. As if her resume was not already strong enough, Edna is tri-lingual! She speaks French, English and Spanish.

We are proud and delighted to present Edna with this award. The future of the Interior Design industry is clearly bright and we look forward to watching her succeed in whatever endeavors she takes on next.

The Savvy Home Store Scholarship was presented to one student with a strong interest in Interior Design or a related field. The scholarship winner was chosen by a selection committee composed of Savvy Home Store employees. Applicants were required to submit an academic transcript, a personal statement, and five interior layouts or furniture designs.

We would also like to thank all of our other applicants. We reviewed submissions from many students who were more than qualified to receive this award. It was a pleasure reviewing work from the best and brightest of the next generation of interior designers. We wish everyone the best of luck as you continue your promising careers in this exciting industry.
