The Return of a Visionary: Welcoming Back Whitney (Grubb) Cope
In the world of design, every line drawn, every color chosen, every piece of furniture selected tells a story. Few understand this better than Whitney (Grubb) Cope. Whitney first joined the JAI family in 2011, making her mark as an intuitive and detail-oriented Design Coordinator. Her work on projects like the iconic Shephard’s Beach Resort in Clearwater Beach was characterized by a unique blend of creativity and precision.
After a decade-long adventure in Australia, where she honed her design aesthetic, Whitney is rejoining the JAI family. It’s more than a homecoming; it’s a fusion of global experience with familiar roots, promising exciting possibilities for our clients and our team. We eagerly anticipate the fresh perspectives and innovative ideas she’ll bring from her time Down Under.

The story of Jenn Lindner is one of passion, dedication, and relentless pursuit of excellence. Since joining us as a Design Coordinator in June 2013, Jenn has consistently exceeded expectations. Her impressive portfolio, brimming with successful projects completed in record time, speaks volumes about her commitment and talent.
Jenn’s expertise, honed at top architectural and design firms in Boston and Brooklyn, has been instrumental in our transition to a remote model in 2020.

As Jenn steps into her new role as Design Director, we’re not just promoting a team member; we’re recognizing a leader who embodies JAI’s brand culture and design philosophy. We have no doubt that her vision, coupled with her proficiency in design technology, will propel us to new heights of design excellence.
