David has been designing custom storage solutions since 2011, bringing a keen eye for detail, problem-solving skills, and a customer-first mindset to every project. He loves working with homeowners, truly listening to their needs, and creating designs that are both beautiful and highly functional.
One of his most memorable projects was a 150-year-old home in Carlisle, where he had to work around sloping floors and other quirks of an older home to create a seamless, modern storage solution. It was a challenge—but one he tackled head-on, and the client was thrilled with the results.
David is also our go-to designer when it comes to transforming garages into organized, functional spaces. Whether it’s custom cabinets, optimized storage, or sleek organization systems, his expertise makes him an unofficial garage guru—though, of course, our whole team is skilled at creating amazing garages too!
“There isn’t a problem David can’t solve,” is something we often say around here. His ability to understand exactly what a customer wants—and translate that into a perfectly tailored design—sets him apart.
“I love meeting new people every day and creating solutions for people’s problems.” – David
Before diving into the storage industry, David spent 17 years in hospitality, where he mastered the art of customer service. This background gives him a unique ability to connect with clients, anticipate their needs, and create spaces that truly work for them.
David is a Registered Storage Designer™ with the Association of Closet and Storage Professionals, a distinction that recognizes his expertise, commitment to excellence, and industry leadership—something he’s incredibly proud of.
Outside of work, David finds joy in kayaking, and spending time in nature. He’s also a proud father of two grown kids, and when he’s not designing dream spaces or working on a garage transformation, you’ll likely find him enjoying the great outdoors or whipping up something delicious in the kitchen.
Greg is the backbone of Closet Envy’s installation team, overseeing multiple crews each day to ensure every project runs smoothly. From coordinating schedules to making sure each team has exactly what they need, he’s the guy who keeps everything on track—and he’s not afraid to get his hands dirty, personally handling final finishing touches to make sure every job meets Closet Envy’s high standards.
With over 15 years of experience in the industry, Greg’s history with Closet Envy goes all the way back to the beginning. He and Shaun first worked together at another closet company before Shaun took the leap to start his own business. Greg soon joined him, helping grow Closet Envy from a small operation into the thriving company it is today.
Beyond closets, Greg has a deep love for music and has been a fixture in the Burlington music scene for years. He’s toured the world as a guitarist and vocalist, and when he’s not fine-tuning storage spaces, you might find him fine-tuning a setlist. In his free time, he has a rather unique hobby—arrowhead hunting, which takes him all over Ontario in search of hidden treasures from the past.

Gooooooo Karla!
She loves her work, but outside of Closet Envy, you’ll find her living by the beach in Niagara, hiking the escarpment, tackling DIY and craft projects with her family, or lost in a pile of books (which she will definitely, most certainly read before buying more… probably).
