Moved to Chicago, IL from Pekin, IL to attend Harrington College of Design in 2008 where I completed by Bachelors of Fine Arts in Interior Design. Completed my educational internship at Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture, which focuses on large-scale international, commercial projects. Upon completion, was asked to extend my time there and join the staff full-time. Broadened my horizons personally and in my career, by moving to California to be part of the Interior Design Team with Forever 21 at their headquarters in Los Angeles.
Currently, Ali Bacon is a Project Designer for The Gettys Group, specializing in hospitality design and has worked on projects with Westin, Sheraton, Hilton, Doubletree Suites, Autograph Collection, Hyatt Centric and small-scale boutique hotels.
