About Melissa Lemaster

I am a registered interior designer with twelve years of experience. During my time with Dewberry I have led interior design development on numerous project types including higher education, healthcare, justice, and corporate offices. My expertise with programs such as Revit, InDesign, and Photoshop allow me to provide illustrations that demonstrate design elements to clients for clear communication and collaboration. My job responsibilities include drafting construction documents, construction administration, furniture and equipment packages, space planning, selecting finishes and creating finish boards to present to clients. I graduated in May 2014 with my Master of Interior Architecture and Product Design from the College of Architecture, Planning and Design at Kansas State University. This CIDA accredited, quality program is nationally ranked by Design Intelligence Magazine. As part of my program at Kansas State University I had the privilege to study Interior Design at Hochschule Coburg in Coburg, Germany during the spring 2013 semester.
