<p dir="ltr">Today we’re going to talk about something that quietly chips away at your profits, your confidence, and your sanity on construction projects, and that is your unclear role, which affects your bottom line. </p> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">Join the waitlist for my course here: <a href= "https://www.reneedevignierdesign.com/construction-management-interior-designers"> https://www.reneedevignierdesign.com/construction-management-interior-designers</a> </p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">Find the full shownotes at: <a href= "https://devignierdesign.com/doing-it-all-getting-paid-for-half">https://devignierdesign.com/doing-it-all-getting-paid-for-half</a> </p> <p> </p>

<p dir="ltr">Today’s episode is a really special one. I am joined by Mercedes G Quintanilla, a designer who completed every single lesson inside my course, The Interior Designer's Guide to Construction Management. </p> <p dir="ltr">I actually offered an incentive for the first time for members inside the course, who completed it in its entirety, and Mercedes dove in headfirst. She not only went through the whole curriculum from start to finish, but she’s now going back through it, to catch all of the, what she calls, nuggets. And here’s why that’s so powerful: it’s easy to cherry-pick content to solve an immediate problem on your plate, and sometimes that is exactly what you need. But when it comes to construction management, understanding how a project unfolds, phase by phase, and your role in each phase, that’s what’s going to help you avoid the headaches before they hit. The flow does matter. The foundation matters. And Mercedes does get that. </p> <p dir="ltr">Mercedes G Quintanilla is an accomplished Designer originally from El Salvador, who has cultivated a rich career blending interior design and architecture. She holds a bachelor’s degree in interior design from The Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale and a master’s degree in architecture from Boston Architectural College. </p> <p dir="ltr">In 2013, after navigating the challenges of the economic downturn, she ventured into real estate investment, got her license, and founded Atlanta Investing Properties LLC, specializing in flipping residential properties that required significant transformation. This hands-on experience in project management has equipped her with invaluable skills for overseeing complex design projects and renovations, as well as managing intricate real estate transaction paperwork.</p> <p dir="ltr">After a rewarding journey in real estate, Mercedes returned to her true passion—design—in 2016, while continuing to manage real estate renovations on the side. As her real estate, remodeling, and design work deepened, particularly in residential and workspace design, Atlanta Investing Properties LLC naturally evolved into a design studio. Today, she blends her expertise with her design skills to craft unique spaces that nourish the soul and elevate well-being</p> <p dir="ltr"> </p> <p dir="ltr">Even with her background as a trained architect, her experience she recognized that there were gaps in how she approached her projects, in particular residential projects. </p> <p dir="ltr">In today's episode, you'll hear about the areas of my course, The Interior Designers Guide to Construction Management, that surprised her, ones that challenged her, and ones that gave her the structure that she needed to take her business to the next level.</p> <p>You can find out more about Mercedes and follow her on Instagram here:</p> <p dir="ltr"><a href= "https://mercedesquintanilla.com">https://mercedesquintanilla.com</a> </p> <p dir="ltr"><a href= "https://www.instagram.com/_mercedes.quintanilla">https://www.instagram.com/_mercedes.quintanilla</a></p> <p dir="ltr"> </p> <p dir="ltr">Join the waitlist for my course here: <a href= "https://www.reneedevignierdesign.com/construction-management-interior-designers"> https://www.reneedevignierdesign.com/construction-management-interior-designers</a> </p> <p dir="ltr">Find the full shownotes at: <a href= "https://devignierdesign.com/what-you-still-need">https://devignierdesign.com/what-you-still-need</a> </p> <p> </p>
