Interior Design Podcast | Episode 1 | SLM Contractor Interview

Welcome to my first podcast video series! I will be interviewing professionals that are a part of the interior design field and careers related to interior design. I am really excited to launch this mini-series because I think this will provide insight into the design culture.

Wil is the founder and owner of SLM, Inc. He originally started with landscaping and now has now dedicated his time to custom home remodeling. We started working together last year and we haven’t fully worked on an entire project together, but I think this will be the beginning of a fun series. We will be chatting/asking questions about our roles and how they intertwined with one another.
