Meet Your Color Works Coach

Katie Decker-Erikson

Katie Decker began Color Works in 2007 to combine her love of color and beautiful design with her business savvy and the experience she gained while earning her MBA and certification from the International Association of Color Consultants and Designers. The result is a process-driven design firm that emphasizes your ROI just as much as it does choosing the right color.

What began as a part-time endeavor is now a multi-million dollar business born of smart and intentional growth.

I started with a cardboard box and paint chips, literally. Wherever you are, I can help you get to where you want to be through proven processes and first-hand experience of starting, growing and running a design firm.
