Our Management Team:
Ina Martinez
Owner/Manager
|
Ina started Ina’s Workshop over 40 years ago in the basement of her home where she became a second generation home decor manufacturer. While her Mother-in-Law passed on the basics of drapery construction, nearly every custom specialty item Ina’s Workshop offers, Ina herself has created a unique process. She has been making design come to life for everyone from high end designers to the do-it-yourselfers ever since. Ina is a problem solver at heart, she can work most anything out in her head and make it a reality. She takes pride in a job well done at a fair price.
Ina has always believed that her staff should be trained on every step, as a result, Ina’s Workshop is not an assembly line workroom. Each person knows each step, which eliminates mistakes due to not seeing the big picture (not to mention a happier staff). |
Malinda Martinez
Production Manager/Draperies |
Malinda officially started working for Ina’s Workshop in 1997. Since then she has worked her way up from a Workroom Assistant to Production Manager. Several years ago she took over the teaching and training duties from Ina, developing her own training method along the way. It is important to her that every person not only learn the correct process, but the “why” behind the process. An ethos she learned while earning her Bachelor degree in Political Science from the University of Utah.
Malinda also sets the window coverings production schedule and staff schedule to maintain the quality of work and meet deadlines. Her attention to detail helps maintain the quality of the workshops work. |
