From ER Nurse to Interior Designer.

Lakiesha Stanley spent 7 years as an ER Nurse… and now she’s designing hospital interiors.As Lakiesha moves about her career as a healthcare interior designer (currently with Gresham Smith), she brings so much more than empathy from her time as a nurse… She brings over a mindset on how to prioritize and deal with tough situations. In today's episode, she lets us in on how we can "triage" any situation.The second half of the conversation really captures the advice she has for others - and there are some ways in which she understands herself - and her journey that connects to so much of what many of us might have felt at some point. Click here to get your FREE copy of the Imagine a Place journalConnect with host, Doug Shapiro,  below:By Email: [email protected] Instagram: @Douglas_ShapiroOn LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/doshapiro/Email Imagine a Place: [email protected] Connect with Maria on LinkedIn.Follow Imagine a Place on LinkedIn.Click here to get your copy of Maria's children's book—Design Your World.Click here to get your own Imagine a Place Conversation Card Deck.Imagine a Place gathers industry-leading voices that can inspire the design community through storytelling and broaden our creative horizons.
