Wayne Clark
Founder/Senior Designer
Wayne is old-school
He takes care of customers with the kind of service too seldom found in this day in time. He listens (really listens), pays attention to detail, and follows up.
People take notice
After climbing the ranks to National Sales Manager in solar energy, Wayne was invited to take on sunny Florida’s custom closet design industry. In just a few short years, he went off on his own with a $400 investment, a used desk, and an answering machine. Wayne grew that very business into a six-million-dollar company.
Quite the track record
Today, while Clark Design Group designs hi-end residential closets exclusively for the design-build community, Wayne brings the same work ethic to his customers, “Service begins by listening. We’re born with two ears and one mouth – I believe in using them in that proportion.”
Shannon Clark
Designer
Shannon is drawn to all things creative
She is currently an after-hours improv performer and formally a petite chocolatier. She’s studied theater and sewing. And she’s worked in sustainable clothing design.
Fun, new challenges. It’s what she does
Her most recent creative endeavor? Learning the business of closet design and bringing CDG to Nashville, “I’m inspired daily – seeing the boldness my parents have lived and going after this new adventure.”
After hours, Shannon likes to be wherever the sun is shining – sitting outside, gardening, and living her best life.
Cece Clark
Customer Relations
Cece has a gift. She brings out the best in others
Her secret? She genuinely cares about people. Cece is so compassionate, so intuitive, and so thoughtful that she can’t help but connect with people on a deeper level.
Trust us; she’s the real thing
Married to Wayne, she’s been involved in the family businesses since the beginning – from part-time assistant (and full-time Mom) to bookkeeping and accounting roles. Today, she’s taking a more active part in business development and customer relations.
Just don’t tell Cece that something can’t be done. You’ve been forewarned. Her personal motto says it all: Never, ever give up, “There’s always a solution – even if it takes a minute.”
Stephane Cyr
Lead Installer
Stephane has a nickname: The machine
He works hard. He works fast. And he makes sure things get done right. Always.
At 18, he began his construction journey as a trim carpenter on large residential projects. He quickly rose to project manager, then pivoted into millwork and cabinetry installation.
Enter Wayne
The two met in 1999 and worked together off and on for decades. Today, Stephane is a big part of team Clark Design Group and prides himself as Wayne’s right-hand man.
Born in Maine and raised in Canada, Stephane speaks fluent French. He’s also played his share of hockey and has the broken ribs to prove it.
