Bridget Santos, Owner / Founder

Bridget Santos, NCIDQ, RID, is the founder and owner of Emerson James Studio. Working across the United States designing mixed-use and multifamily housing developments, she has experience collaborating and consulting with numerous architects, developers, and contractors in various industries, such as corporate interiors, healthcare, and senior living developments.

She takes pride in her relationships with her clients no matter the project's scope and is a part of the design process from the initial concept phase through the project’s completion through the installation of FFE.

Having earned her degree from Louisiana Tech University, she majored in Interior Design at the School of Architecture and minored in Business Marketing. Some of Bridget’s accolades include a published piece in Coastal Lifestyle Magazine for the renovation work done on a luxury beach front property in Florida and Bridget was also named one of GoPro’s young emerging interior designers in 2015.

Bridget’s love of design stems from a very young age, having grown up in a family where traveling worldwide inspired her to be an interior designer. Owning her own company has been a dream since Santos could answer the question, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” Coming from a family of entrepreneurs, she understands the value of hard work. Bridget is happily married to her husband Dalton Santos, living in Dallas, Texas, with her two children, Emerson and James, and her chocolate lab Moose.
