She lives for purpose and enjoys encounters with those who laugh as well as talking about business and creativity. She admits her family keeps her grounded and drives her insane at the same time. Fatima spent 25 years in the New York financial services industry, vividly remembering the most memorable day of her career. It was September 11, 2001 – 9-11. She was in her office on the 33rd floor of 7 World Trade Center. That day changed her perspective on life. Her career was a long way from her unsettled childhood in Newark, her birthplace, and the tragedy of that day was a long way from daily tranquility. She walked more than eight miles from Ground Zero to Harlem, where she contacted Curtis, the man who she later married. He and his brother, Devon, picked her up in Harlem. That same day, he proposed. The ring, purchased a day earlier, was too small, but she said, “Yes!” At her husband’s recommendation, Fatima decided to pursue her passion in interior design, leaving corporate America to become an entrepreneur. She received an undergraduate degree in interior architecture and design from Queens University. Her earlier degree was in finance and entrepreneurial management from Bernard Baruch College CUNY. Fatima is owner and lead interior designer of Charlotte-based Sage & Tima Designs, LLC, a young firm making its mark in the region. Despite calling herself an introvert, her designs are anything but. Bold, creative, hot color, without limits, the same attitude she had in creating this adult design book.ver menos
