From a young age Joty has been on job sites with her family being in the residential building and development industry. She has always had a passion for design and art, growing up she played piano and enjoyed painting and pottery. She found herself being more creative whether it was through painting her room every so often or constantly trying to redecorate her home.

After high school, Joty went into sciences and obtained a Medical Laboratory Diploma. Growing up in the same home for most of her life brought upon the opportunity to do a home renovation. She was able to manage and participate in the renovation hands-on. This was the turning point that made her realize she wanted to pursue a career in Interior Design.

Joty now has her Diploma in Residential Interiors with an Associate Certificate in Kitchen and Bath Design from BCIT and a Staging Certificate. Upon graduation, following her internship with the team, she joined SGDI where she can help others to create something special in their homes, with that passion for personalization as her driving force.

Traveling not only is a great experience and adventure but there is an abundance of inspiration from cultures around the world. Joty loves to travel and has been able to explore a few places such as India, Thailand, Caribbean, and was able to visit 8 countries in a month-long Europe trip. She hopes to continue traveling and getting more inspiration.
