In 2020, she was ready to quit and return to corporate America with the pandemic taking hold. But a campaign to support Black entrepreneurs gave her business oxygen when people started 'voting with their wallets' and she gained many new clients and a licensing deal.

Robin Wilson joined the Board of the Sustainable Furnishings Council in 2012 as Vice Chair for two years. She continues work with SFC as a 'Green Ambassador', plus she maintains her role as an unpaid ambassador since 2010 for the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, (AAFA) which one of the leading non-profit organization that partners with medical experts to provide consumer information related to these chronic medical conditions.

In addition, Robin Wilson was named a brand ambassador for the Panasonic USA launch of home products in 2014. During this prolific time, she also partnered with a leading pharmaceutical firm to film a national media campaign as an expert of clean design for a hypoallergenic lifestyle.

Her interior design work included the White House Fellows office (DC), President Clinton's office (Harlem), Lake Nona/Laureate Park color palette (FL) and numerous other projects across the United States.

Her input and commentary is valued by media outlets regarding asthma, allergies, diversity, clean design, wellness and eco-friendly design.

Robin  Wilson was fortunate to work at a company that had an IPO in 1999. She  received a windfall and decided to chase her dream of becoming an  entrepreneur. She was also a student at night at New York University to  matriculate with a Master's in Real Estate Finance. 

After  graduation from NYU, her opportunities to use her degree were limited  due to fiscal inequality - she could not get venture/financing to  develop a building in Harlem. One of her mentor professors told her to  pivot and use her skills to become the 'busy homeowners' best friend'  and that is how she started to do project management and design to   build the firm. 

Every  revenue dollar was poured back into the company and she 'bet on  herself' and by 2003, she was working on projects for high-net work  individuals and global celebrities.

Robin was born and raised in Austin Texas - and from birth she was considered pan-allergic which often put her at risk with multiple hospitalizations including anaphylaxis and asthma attacks. Her parents were fortunate to encounter a holistic pediatrician who guided them by ask them if they wanted to 'raise a strong child, or a child on strong medicine' which created a revamp of diet, exercise, indoor allergens (no more shag carpet) and the pet went outside.  

As Malcolm Gladwell would say, "...it takes 10,000 hours to become an expert..." and the allergic childhood of Robin Wilson informs her on a daily basis in her design work, and guides her advice to families. 

The most unique part of her story is the fact that her grandfather was a sharecropper and he picked cotton in Texas - and the luxury Supima™ cotton featured in her textiles is from Texas or California, so this brand is helping American farmers!

It is a wonderful American story to see Robin Wilson rise from humble beginnings to chase an entrepreneurial dream that would make her ancestors proud.
