Jessica Davis

Owner / Principal Designer, ASID allied

Jessica Davis founded JL Design in 2005. She is a graduate of Watkins College of Art in Nashville Tennessee, and brings 18 years of Interior Design experience to the JL Design team.

“I knew I wanted to be involved in Design at a very young age, when I realized there were always new challenges to overcome. I have always been surrounded by the arts and I have always felt that my inner creativity would ultimately guide me in my career. I wanted to be a part of something that would allow me to work closely with people and enrich their lives through design. For me, Interior Design is defined by functional, unique, creativity tailored to each individual.”

With a degree in Interior Design, Jessica began consulting on Design projects in Middle Tennessee, and was soon being commissioned for jobs in New York, New Jersey, and Miami. JL Design’s reputation for innovative Interior Design solutions has made it a leader in its class.

“I feel so fortunate to be able to bring my devotion and energy to my clients every day, and forge relationships that I find so crucial when working in someones home or personal space. There will always be a need for functional, progressive Interior Design, and I am committed to the art form and the evolving industry as it meets the needs of today.”

Emily Stevens

Emily Stevens

Lead Interior Designer / Project Manager, ASID Allied

Originally from Memphis, TN, Emily was raised by her parents, who constantly fostered her love for art and drawing. She always enjoyed helping her father with hands-on projects around the house, beginning with landscaping at age five. In high school, she realized that she wanted to follow in her parents’ footsteps and attend Mississippi State University, where she graduated with her Bachelor of Science in Interior Design.

Through her studies, she grew in her passion for residential design and knew that’s where she wanted to be in her career. She enjoys creating one-on-one connections and wants to help people express themselves and their personalities in their home. After school, she moved to Nashville with her husband for the city’s creativity and musical atmosphere. When she’s not working on renderings, you can find her at the nearest concert venue, new restaurants in the city, or at home drawing or painting.

Jordyn Rubin

Lead Interior Designer, ASID Allied

Originally from Chicago, Illinois, Jordyn has always had an interest in art and design. As a child, her grandmother would only let her stay up late when sleeping over if she would watch HGTV with her. She explored this creativity throughout high school taking both interior design and photography courses.

Jordyn moved to Nashville to attend O’More College of Design at Belmont University, where she graduated with a BFA in Interior Design and Minor in Entrepreneurship in 2023. Through her experience in the design industry she grew to love learning about how psychology and individuality plays a role in the design of each space.

When she’s not at the studio, she’s most likely playing with her puppy or planning her next travel destination.
