Kadija Taylor is a native of Denver, Colorado. After graduating from the University of Colorado at Denver, she began a career in property management, where she spent over eleven years in affordable housing serving many disadvantaged and marginalized populations in the city. During this tenure, she served on various project committees for rehabs, renovations, and new builds. She fell in love with design and knew it was time to make a change. In 2016, she decided to spread her wings and venture into the world of real estate and home design, which ultimately led her to open Home and Sanctuary.
