Annette Bajema

Problem-solving  has been a passion for me since I was young. Recognizing a kindred  spirit, my father gave me a pencil, a sketchbook, and the opportunity to  join him in the woodshop. From encouraging me to build furniture, to  guiding me through design solutions in the world around us, he passed on  his passion for seeking out quality solutions to difficult questions,  which continues to drive me forward.

I graduated from Texas Tech  with an architecture and business degree, an enthusiasm for  client-centered design, and a desire for adventure, so I set off for the  east coast. In Charlotte, I worked both in historic renovation and  urban planning while earning my architectural license. These  opportunities fostered my drive to find the balance between beauty,  function, and funding to craft the perfect solution for a client. Now, I  run my own firm called Reframe Design Collaborative to work together  with a team of talented builders to bring my clients dreams to reality.
