Krista Kenyon

Tucson, AZ

Krista comes to us from years in the custom furniture and cabinetry industry. While studying Art at ASU, she discovered a passion for woodworking, and after graduating she worked and trained for over 10 years learning the furniture and cabinetmaking trade. She opened her own custom furniture and cabinet shop where she was the designer and team manager for more than 25 years.

During that time she had the pleasure of working with several acclaimed Arizona architects on unusual and challenging residential projects but also enjoyed collaborating directly with homeowners on their projects. When Krista relocated to rural, Southern Arizona to design and build her second custom home, the idea was to retire and ride horses, but when she was offered a job working with customers as designer and project supervisor for a large company’s interior remodeling program, she couldn’t resist, and discovered she loved it.

In 2020 she joined the Davis Kitchens team after moving to Tucson.

Krista now brings her years of both design and practical experience to help you find the best solutions for your project (and have some fun along the way!)
