J Boykin Baker is an award-winning interior designer, best-selling author, speaker, and founder of a nonprofit which provides clean water to families in 32 countries and provinces, as well as areas in the United States. She grew up in the small town of Wilson, North Carolina. She knew from the age of seven, after seeing the old movie "Pillow Talk," that the only career for her was interior design. After college, marriage, and babies, her dream of being an interior designer came true with the start of her own design firm in Atlanta, Georgia. As luck would have it, she just happened to be in the right place-at the right time-with the right look and ended up designing hospitals, corporate offices, and high-end residential projects across the nation. With humor, tears, and professional insight, she enjoys sharing her wide-ranging experiences on national television, radio interviews, and international speaking engagements. She was honored to be named one of North Carolina's Women of Achievement. |
