MEET OUR
a-team
Alisha Gregg
President/CEO, RID, NCIDQ, IIDA
As the owner of bfd interiors, this is my favorite part of the website! It is this section where I’m able to gush about the A-Team of people who work with us and are assigned the pleasure of working together on incredible projects for every single client. Every person with us has the technical credentials, licenses and education needed that you will see with every design firm you review. But I find it’s a bit more interesting for you to see these wonderful people through my heartfelt stories about them, and that little something that makes them quite unique.
Karen Albin
Quoting, Procurement, Logistics Management
“You will be hard-pressed to find someone in the industry who works harder, is more pleasant and humble, and is quicker on delivery…”
Karen Albin
I describe Karen as a checks-and-balances person with a designer’s eye. She negotiates strongly with manufacturers and CSRs to keep them on task and make our clients’ projects a priority in their queue. She assists the designers with special finishes and fabric concerns to bridge the gap between the designer and the vendor. Karen has a brain for literally hundreds of details at a time and takes care of any issues before anyone knows they were even a problem. This includes expediting shipments with our vendors and collaborating with them to ensure our client is getting exactly what they are expecting on time. Karen owned her own company in another city before coming to bfd and approaches her role with a level of ownership and service that is personal on behalf of our clients. She knows how important she is to the logistical success of every project.
Karen is personally invested in our clients’ success. Preparation and execution are her superpowers, wrapped in a bundle of care. She is a knitting master by hobby, which seems apropos for the host of details she knits together for us.

Kirsten has a knack for solving the unsolvable, taking on even the most layered technical challenges with precision and calm determination. She handles complex design puzzles like magic, but let’s be clear: no wand is necessary. However, what is sometimes necessary is the company of her pitbull furbaby, Gracie—affectionately known as her “land hippo”—who shows up in everything from cozy sweaters to seasonal costumes, spreading smiles and stealing hearts wherever she goes.
Whether Kirsten is mentoring designers or unraveling problems that have stumped the team for days, she makes the impossible look effortless. She’s the lifeline you never knew you needed, turning chaos into seamless creativity every time.

Her creativity isn’t just reserved for work; it’s woven into everything she does. A natural artist at heart, she’s just as comfortable with a sketchpad as she is with CAD, and her love for color and detail shines as vibrantly as the tattoos she wears.

“When Misty walks into a room in high heels, of course—you know things are about to get done.”

Her “high heels, higher standards” approach isn’t just a tagline—it’s how she operates. Misty sets the bar high, whether she’s advocating for her clients, pushing a project across the finish line, or making sure every detail is flawless.
