Henricksen, a leading national contract furniture dealer, is excited to announce that Vice President of Operations Kelly Hogan has been promoted to Vice President of Design and Client Engagement of the Washington D.C. office. In this role, Hogan will foster existing client relationships and serve as a trusted resource, bringing 17 years of experience with the company and offering design expertise grounded in extensive industry knowledge.

“Kelly has a passion and drive for achieving the best results for our clients,” said Gosia Humes, General Manager of Henricksen’s Washington D.C. office. “She brings valuable insights for clients whose needs and obstacles require her design-oriented perspective. As design continues to play an increasingly significant role in this industry, her role is more essential than ever.”

Hogan first joined COFCO, a Henricksen Company, as an interior designer in 2008 and transitioned to the D.C. office following the 2019 acquisition. This pivotal step strengthened her commitment to success in a highly competitive market increasingly saturated with dealerships and architecture and design firms. Hogan’s design background, combined with her expertise in relationship-building, enables her to engage clients effectively and educate them on the current workplace landscape and emerging trends. As Vice President of Design and Client Engagement, Hogan will have expanded opportunities to engage with clients and deepen the trust she has developed with key regional partners.

“Placing client needs at the forefront, our team partners with architects and designers to align on project goals and priorities. Once we understand their vision, we leverage our resources and expertise to bring it to life,” said Kelly Hogan, Vice President of Design and Client Engagement. “While the Henricksen name may be newer to the D.C. market, our team has a deep history within the region, providing us with the insight needed to best serve our clients.”

An active member of the local design community, Hogan has served as a mentor for Interior Design’s 30/30 program, guiding emerging professionals through discussions on the industry’s future and current challenges. She is also actively involved with Commercial Real Estate Women (CREW) D.C. , IIDA,  Women in Healthcare and has contributed her time to the Christopher Kelley Leadership Program,  Breakthrough T1D, Bread for the City, and Rebuilding Together.
