Our Team

After graduating from Baylor University with honors in a degree in design, she worked with architects for 8 years gaining experience in commercial construction and honing in on the technical aspects of design. In 2011, she established Palmer Davis Design in Waco, Texas with her partner Jill. Renae loves making peoples dreams a reality. Her mix of old and new combined with her obsession to detail is a unique combination resulting in a timeless design that has her clients returning again and again. Her genuine love of home and family are reflected in her combination of expertise, integrity, and commitment to enriching the lives of her clients.

Jill is co-founder of Palmer Davis Design based in Waco, Texas. In 2006, Jill received a Bachelor’s of Science in Interior Design from Baylor University. Her love for design began early with parents who were builders, renovators and decorators. Jill’s innate ability to capture simplistic elements in everyday life to incorporate into design makes her truly unique in her field. Her clients appreciate the sense of warmth, comfort and well-being of “home” that Jill creates. Her personal home, which she designed and contracted, was featured on the cover of Wacoan Magazine's “New Home of The Year" in 2015.

Audra became a member of the Palmer Davis Design team in March of 2017 after working in various design and flooring/material showrooms in the East Texas and Central Texas regions. 

After graduating from the accredited interior design program at Oklahoma State University, Audra felt compelled to move to Texas where her knowledge and experience has grown through working in sales and design consultant positions, business and administrative roles within the design field, and as an interior designer in both residential and commercial settings. Audra’s personal care for the client and attention to detail, along with a propensity for material and finish selections, brings a special touch to her projects.

She enjoys working within various design styles, but is particularly drawn to transitional, modern farmhouse, and eclectic styles.  The most rewarding part of the design process, for Audra, comes at the end when everything comes together and the clients can enjoy life in their new, beautiful spaces. 

Bennett was initially drawn to interior design by her appreciation for architecture and fine art and has come to truly enjoy the level of involvement with each project this profession allows. She loves to see clients’ homes progress through every stage of a remodel, but finds particular satisfaction in efficient space planning and selecting finishes to bring out the personality in every project. Bennett brings a visionary perspective to the Palmer Davis team. Her imaginative outlook has been greatly influenced by her international travel which introduced her to an array of architectural styles. From the southwestern style in her native state of New Mexico to the Louvre Pyramid, historic landmarks to modern masterpieces, she draws from a deep well of architectural inspiration to guide her projects toward stunning end results. Bennett joined Palmer Davis Design as an intern in the summer of 2019. Upon graduating from Baylor University in May of 2020 she became a full time associate.

Kate joined the Palmer Davis team after earning her BS in Interior Design from Baylor University in 2020. She comes by her love for design and construction honestly. An eye for design and a mind for technical details comprise her ability to take on many design challenges artfully and efficiently. From building a family cabin in the Maine woods to drawing up plans for homes in Waco, she has always been attracted to the unique combination of creativity and logic the interior design industry offers. Experiences in both residential and commercial internships as well as personal construction projects have particularly influenced her developing design approach. She especially enjoys seeing projects progress from conception to implementation and working with a talented team to fully execute their clients’ visions.
