“As design chair and RMH Long Island Board member in 2014, I have had the honor of leading project design in the New York area for the past two years,” said Costa, in a statement. “My interior design business has recently brought me to Southwest Florida for several months at a time. During my visits, I have been quite intrigued to learn that a tremendous need exists in Fort Myers for a similar home transformation, near the new Golisano Children’s Hospital. Having this unique position of connecting with families in the community, as well as with the local Southwest Florida interior design industry, has positioned me to replicate the generosity for which we were grateful in previous years up north.”
