Cayla Schneider

Design has always been my way of telling a story—of creating spaces that not only look beautiful but also evoke a feeling. With a background in multimedia design and a deep passion for interiors, I’ve spent my career blending creativity with strategy to bring spaces to life. Whether it’s staging a home to feel inviting, curating textures and materials that spark interest, or leading a team through a rebrand, I thrive on the process of turning vision into reality.

My experience spans interior design, home staging, retail merchandising, and creative direction. I love sourcing unique pieces, playing with color and form, and crafting spaces that feel intentional and inspiring. From high-end interiors to boutique branding, my approach is always about storytelling—creating an atmosphere that resonates and leaves a lasting impression.

I’ve spent my career bringing spaces and brands to life through design, creative direction, and strategic execution. As Director of Design and Operations at White Wood Woven, I led everything from branding to staging, increasing sales by 175% through thoughtful design and seamless operations. My experience in home staging at Elite Home Staging allowed me to transform interiors into inviting, market-ready spaces, honing my eye for spatial storytelling.

Beyond interiors, I’ve worked extensively in product development, retail merchandising, and visual storytelling—curating aesthetics that elevate brands and connect with audiences. Whether leading creative teams, sourcing the perfect design elements, or managing large-scale projects, I thrive in environments that blend creativity with strategy. I love what I do, and I’m excited for the opportunity to bring my passion and expertise to a new challenge.
