The Journey to Now | February 24th at 3pm.

Welcome to the February 2021 NKBA SoCal Meeting! Free of charge. 

We’ve partnered with Pacific Sales to host a virtual panel discussion -- a chance to hear from designers and tradespeople in our industry who have "been there, done that." 

Check out our panel: 

Joanna Osborne, Store Manager of Pacific Sales Escondido

Growing up, Joanna Osborne watched her mother, an architect/interior designer, improve function, aesthetics, and safety of everyday spaces for her clients. She saw how her mother's work influenced lives and contributed to the overall well-being of the families she assisted.

Today, Osborne's mission is to positively impact the world, enrich people's lives through design and technology and contribute to the common good. This mission aligns with the vision of Pacific Sales: being able to offer clients the full home experience within home theater, appliances, smart home, and plumbing.
