Jill Goldberg was born and raised in Wellesley, Massachusetts. Like Many designers, she started her career in her mother’s living room rearranging the furniture. Always a fan of home design, it wasn’t her first love. Jill ran off to Los Angeles after high school to become an actress. For the next eight years Jill struggled with her “acting career”, but all the while soaking up the relaxed and comfortable California style that is present in her work today. Finally one day, she realized it’s time to go back to school and study a subject she had loved for so long, Interior Design. Jill attended The Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in Los Angeles, where she thrived. Upon graduation she left Los Angeles for Boston, where she dove in head first.
In 2001 Jill started her own company, Picket Fence Interior Design, and began to work with homeowners helping them to realize their personal taste through the selections of fabrics, furniture, accent pieces and wall colors. This experience helped her realize that she wanted to work with materials and items that she felt passionate about. In September 2006 Jill opened up Hudson, Boston’s premiere home boutique. At Hudson, Jill has found an outlet for her creativity and passion. Jill likes to describe the store as Traditional, Country and Vintage meet Modern…and that is just what it is. You’ll see all these components throughout the store and throughout her in home design work that she still does through the Hudson store.
