Peter Von Esten

Designer

Peter Von Esten discovered his passion for kitchen design after honing his skills in a Lowe's flooring department, where his natural talent helped propel the location to top 10 national sales status. After transitioning to the kitchen and bath department, where he further finessed his skills in design, he joined the BKC team in 2012. Peter thrives on the excitement of clients' immediate reactions to their newly-transformed spaces, which he helped create.

She thrives on the challenge of creating designs that seamlessly blend functionality with beauty, finding her greatest joy in witnessing homeowners' excitement when they experience their transformed space for the first time. One of her most memorable projects involved revitalizing an old, poorly functioning kitchen in a mountaintop log cabin, where she masterfully combined rustic charm with fresh, modern touches to achieve the perfect balance between tradition and contemporary style. When she's not designing beautiful spaces, Jennie enjoys staying active and making memories with her family through mountain biking, water activities, and spending time in nature.

Jennie has received notable industry recognition for her designs, including the national grand prize Chrysalis Awards for Remodeling Excellence.

Candice Hill

In 2022, he joined the BKC team with a deep commitment to helping clients bring their dreams to fruition. His expertise shines in transformative projects like converting a cramped galley kitchen into an open, functional space by removing walls and creating a seamless floor plan—demonstrating his ability to reimagine spaces in ways that fundamentally improve how his clients live and enjoy their homes.

Outside of work, Dale enjoys running the extensive outdoor trail system throughout the Denver area and makes it a point to attend at least two concerts a year at Red Rocks.

Gavy Sipion

Designer

Gavrielle "Gavy" Sipion transitioned from performing arts to kitchen and bath design after the pandemic impacted the entertainment industry. Seeking a new creative outlet, she studied at the New York Institute of Art and Design and gained experience working as a design assistant for a general contractor/interior designer and a custom homebuilder. Since joining the BKC team in 2023, Gavy has wholeheartedly embraced her passion for cabinet design, finding her greatest fulfillment in helping clients navigate the often stressful and emotional construction process. Her most meaningful project was the complete home redesign for a family whose house had burned down—a challenging project that allowed her to provide both design expertise and emotional support.

When not creating beautiful spaces, Gavy stays connected to her musical roots through singing and songwriting and also enjoys relaxing at home with her husband, two dogs, and a bowl of her favorite food, popcorn.
