Meet Lesley Ray

Lesley's design career spans 13+ years working on multimillion dollar residential & commercial projects ranging from luxury homes for private clients to luxury offices for global technology companies in Silicon Valley.
These experiences enabled her to collaboratively push creative boundaries while balancing the client's practical requirements for budget, timeline, & security.
Committed to sustainability: while completing her Bachelor of Science in Interior Space Design, she led initiatives with the national US Green Building Council (USGBC) board to found Central Ohio's first LEED Emerging Professionals Group.
A licensed NCIDQ-certified designer, Lesley was also nominated as a “Rising Rockstar” by the Commercial Real Estate Women, Silicon Valley chapter — an ironic nod to her musical upbringing.
Growing up as a violinist, she performed with Emmy-winning composers & Grammy-winning rockstars Pat Benatar & Neil Giraldo, Jon Anderson of Yes, along with Mike Garson (David Bowie, Smashing Pumpkins) & Styx.
Outside of design she enjoys live music, yoga, attempting Crossfit, drawing caricatures, & traveling with no itinerary.
