PROFILE

Lisa Kauffman Tharp founded Boston Home StagingTM in 2005, after an award-winning career as
an advertising/marketing executive and video producer.

During 19 years of overseeing photography and film shoots, at firms such as
HBO,
Time-Life Video & Television, and Kraft General Foods, Lisa honed her visual arts skills – layout,
color, scale, balance, lighting, proportion – skills that she calls upon every day to help her clients.  
While marketing national brands from
HBO to JELL-O, Lisa deepened her understanding of buyer
psychology, the same fundamentals which she employs to help home sellers achieve the highest
possible price in the shortest amount of time.
With a B.A. from Boston College and an MBA from New York
University, Lisa's background as marketer, producer and
business manager ensures her clients receive a design plan
that not only achieves their real estate goals, but will also be
executed on time, on budget, with excellence.

Lisa is a member of the Interior Design Society (IDS), and has
access to the
Boston Design Center.  She completed her
Home Staging business training with internationally known
home staging expert Debra Gould of
Six Elements Inc.
Lisa satisfies her love of color, not only through design and
color consultations for clients, but also through painting.
