Alexander Brindley

Antiques and Art Manager

As an artist and antique restorationist, Alexander Brindley has found a unique—and perfect—fit at Robin Rains Interior Design. His deep appreciation for the craftsmanship and artistry of antique pieces began in childhood and eventually led him to explore antique construction and restoration techniques. Extensive time living and working in Europe sharpened Alexander’s eye, skill, and passion for the natural world and historic architecture. Whether working as an artist, restoring and repairing antique furniture, or being part of the final design installation, Alexander finds inspiration in the variety of creative opportunities client projects offer him each day.

“As a lover of art, antiques and history, it’s been a wonderful experience working with pieces from Europe on a daily basis and seeing them incorporated into beautiful design projects.”

Anna Lisa Dobbs

Showroom Manager / Designer

A sense of connection to home is something Anna Lisa strives to help others discover. She is passionate about learning the history of iconic pieces which still hold relevance today. It is her goal to share that understanding and appreciation with clients who visit Robin Rains Antiques, assisting them in imaging the everyday purpose and beauty of an antique and how it can be woven into a contemporary lifestyle. She enjoys dipping her toes into various projects, assisting the design team to help their focus remain on the incredible amount of detail they put into their clients’ projects. With a background in event and floral design in Los Angeles, she brings a unique organic flow to spatial planning and passion for natural materials.

“I believe the items you live with everyday help tell your narrative, we achieve this through intent and patience to find the perfect pieces that strike a personal chord in your identity.”

Evan Gibbs

Designer

When it comes to design, Evan Gibbs employs a fearless, hands-on approach. She takes pride in bringing unusual solutions to life, often testing daring ideas in the Robin Rains showroom for clients to see firsthand. From initial concept to final installation, Evan loves every aspect of the creative process. Collaborating with clients to re-contextualize their family heirlooms or beloved pieces is especially satisfying. Evan sees this tension as the unique trait that draws people to the Robin Rains team.

“I love hearing how our work inspires clients to change the way they view their space.”

Jenna Miller

Designer

Jenna Miller finds joy in beautiful surroundings, which inspires each one of her client projects at Robin Rains Interior Design. After earning a Bachelor’s of Science in Interior Design from Indiana University, Jenna spent five years as a lead designer and key contributor to a high-end boutique interior design center. She brings a keen knowledge of fine furniture, experience with space planning, and ability to blend form with function to our team. In particular, Jenna appreciates the freedom to create spaces with signature, impressive elements that endure a striking design. Her aim is to give purpose to a space, where people share and create memories with loved ones.

“Antiques are so grounding and calming. Their natural materials—like stone, wood, leather, linen, and wool—automatically infuse comfort and calm to a space.”
