What drives my work is my passion for creating welcoming, aesthetically-pleasing spaces where my clients feel comfortable and completely at home.

I have always been interested in creating spaces. When I was little, I made a floor plan and these little furniture cut-outs, all from graph paper, that I could rearrange and use to make new layouts. Thinking back, I’m amazed that I was doing it all “to-scale”, without any concept of what that meant. 

I ended up earning my first degree in computer information systems (a story for another time), but after a few years working in the industry, I knew I needed to do something more creative. That’s when I made the pivot to interiors, and pursued a degree in Interior Design from Harrington College of Design in Chicago.

I now have over 15 years of experience working in the high-end residential interior design industry. Over my career, I’ve worked with renowned NYC-based designers Todd Klein and Michael Simon, who were both instrumental in shaping my approach. I love working with color and patterns to create fun, happy, and livable spaces. 

While my professional portfolio spans every region of the US, to the Bahamas, and even Saudi Arabia, I launched Jennifer Li Interiors so that I could refocus my residential design work closer to my home and community in central New Jersey. 

As Owner and Principal Interior Designer, I operate JLI out of Holmdel, NJ, where I also live with my husband and our two daughters. I enjoy exploring Monmouth County through my design work and visiting all of its beautiful beaches! When I’m not designing, I also love spending time in my garden, cozying up with a puzzle, or eating one of my husband’s home-cooked meals. 

Jennifer Li Interiors is proudly a woman-owned, and Asian-owned interior design studio.
