meet KACEY
Kacey was born and raised in St. Louis and grew up surrounded by several family members in the design business. When she and her husband remodeled their first home she knew this was the industry for her. After several years in the marketing industry, in 2020 she joined Ellie Redders Interiors to pursue her passion for interior design.
Like many young mothers, Kacey struggled with keeping her home looking the way she wanted while raising two young children. She uses her desire for organization and strict attention to detail when creating spaces for clients. “A space must not just be pretty but also functional.” This is what drew her to Ellie Redders Interiors. Much like Ellie, Kacey gravitates towards traditional design with modern touches and neutral palettes with accents of color.
When she is not designing beautiful spaces alongside Ellie, Kacey enjoys spending time with her husband and two daughters. She loves boating at the Lake of the Ozarks, traveling and attending sporting events.
