CEDIA has appointed designer Andrea Harvey as Director of Design & Build Outreach. Harvey will head a new department within CEDIA, tasked with forging partnerships with interior designers, architects, and builders.
The Founder of Ash Interiors & Design, and based in Ellicott City, Maryland, Harvey brings more than 20 years of experience at the intersection of interior design, construction, manufacturer partnerships, and professional education.
Harvey’s appointment comes as CEDIA continues to expand its footprint within the design and build sector through a series of initiatives and partnerships.
CEDIA recently introduced regional editions of its design publication, Technology Meets Design – The Best of Professional Smart Home Style, and continues to strengthen relationships with key design and build associations, including BIID, ASID, NKBA, and RIBA.
“CEDIA’s role is to elevate the industry and give our members a competitive advantage. Building on our long-standing program giving CEDIA members the tools to provide accredited education to designers and architects, this new department will provide even more tools for CEDIA members to build their businesses through strategic partnerships with related professionals,” says CEDIA Global President and CEO, Daryl Friedman.
