Appreciation
Patti is passionate about what she does and her attention to detail is impeccable. She is an incredible listener – genuinely interested in you as a person and what you have to say. I had a vision for the home and Taste honored it. We had the privilege of working with almost every Team Taste member on our project – we put our faith and trust in Taste, and they delivered.”
