Dawn Michael is an organic interior designer, licensed contractor and freelance writer. Dawn started her design career 12 years ago working in commercial and residential interior design with her father. When her father became ill with cancer, she devoted her attention to researching treatments and causes of cancer and stumbled upon disturbing information surrounding the textile industry. After many years of research on cancer and it's correlation with the textile industry, Dawn changed her design practice towards organic interior design. Dawn has a background in writing with a B.A. in speech communications and an M.A. in the field of psychology.
