  • Kate Schoffman Co-Owner | Certified Outdoor Lighting Designer (COLD) | Design & Operations

    As Co-Owner of Blingle Premier Lighting, Kate combines creative vision with operational excellence to ensure every project is thoughtfully designed and flawlessly executed. As a Certified Outdoor Lighting Designer (COLD) through the Association of Outdoor Lighting Professionals (AOLP), she specializes in creating custom lighting designs that enhance architecture, elevate landscapes, and transform outdoor spaces into inviting nighttime environments.

    Kate partners closely with homeowners, builders, landscape designers, HOAs, and commercial clients to develop lighting plans that are as functional as they are beautiful. Every design is tailored to complement the property's unique character while improving safety, usability, and curb appeal.

    In addition to leading the design process, Kate oversees project coordination, quality control, and the overall client experience, ensuring every detail is handled with care from the initial consultation through the final nighttime walkthrough. She believes exceptional lighting is about more than illuminating a home—it's about creating spaces that bring people together, leave lasting impressions, and can be enjoyed for years to come.
