Meet The Team

Vice President

Heather brings her business expertise to Baker Design Group from the television, radio, and retail industries. While earning her Bachelor’s in Communication from Texas A&M University, she developed her business acumen in various roles before joining Zale Corporation as an Assistant Buyer. She was quickly promoted to Merchandise Planner for the colored stone and pearl division, where she handled store allocations and financial planning. 

In 2007, Heather brought her experience in business development, planning, and marketing to Baker Design Group, where she has played a key role in the company’s growth. For the past 18 years, Heather has worked closely alongside Linda in expanding Baker Design Group’s corporate and residential interior design services while also developing and managing the Construction and Seasonal Department. She has been instrumental in launching BDG Construction, recognizing the increasing need for quality craftsmanship and design expertise in the construction industry. Leading BDG Construction allows her to combine her passion for design with her strategic approach to business development across all four arms of Baker Design Group.

In 2023, Heather’s creativity and vision were nationally recognized when she stepped away from her everyday role to take on a special project—designing her own vacation rental. The result was a three-time national award-winning design, a testament to her ability to merge function, style, and innovation. 

Beyond her professional achievements, Heather is happiest spending time with her favorite person—her husband and their three beautiful daughters. Most weekends are filled with watching their girls dance and play soccer, but when they’re not on the sidelines, Heather and her husband enjoy working on fun projects around the house and watching all things sports together.

Director of Interior Design

Lisa Floyd, an award-winning interior designer, has been creating design magic with Baker Design Group (BDG) since 2011. From a young age, she developed a perfectionist eye and an insatiable passion for all things creative. This passion led her to Baylor University, where she earned a Bachelor of Science in Interior Design. Her education sharpened her knowledge of materials and finishes, enhanced her skills in various computer drafting programs, and nurtured her ability to sketch, render, and craft a unique design perspective.

Lisa’s involvement in the American Society of Interior Designers (ASID) and Interior Design Society (IDS) is also a testament to her commitment to the profession. Over the years, she has taken on several leadership roles within the Dallas chapter of ASID and the DFW chapter of IDS, including serving as Chair of the ASID TX Dallas Design Community multiple times.

At BDG, Lisa thrives in collaborating with her talented team to bring bold, innovative, and artistic designs to life. Known for her big personality and love for teamwork, she is the driving force behind many of BDG’s award-winning projects. What truly sets her apart, however, is the lasting relationships she builds with her clients, many of whom return to her for future projects, keeping them part of the BDG family.

Outside of design, Lisa’s creative spirit shines in her love for drawing, hand-rendering, and painting. Whether she’s working on custom artwork for friends and family or creating set backdrops, she’s always involved in multiple artistic endeavors. At home, she enjoys hosting fun, over-the-top parties, singing everything under the sun, serving at her beloved church, and cherishing time with her husband, James, and their adorable son, Byron.
