Meet the Team

Brandy Marsh
CEO of Area Floors
email: sales@areafloorsonline.com Ph: 503-684-5585“Lifestyle Strategist” Brandy always looks to create a space that screams your name and is functional for your lifestyle.
The founder of The Carpet Place recognized early on that employee Brandy Marsh would make a great business owner. After years working for The Carpet Place’s previous owner John Rollin, who founded the company in 1967, Brandy bought the company and its two stores in 2003, and continued to retain John as a consultant and mentor. When John died suddenly of a heart attack in the summer of 2004, Brandy realized that it was now all up to her to make the critical decisions. She quickly developed a passion for being a business owner, hiring and motivating employees and renamed the company Area Floors expanding the selection of products from a carpet store to a full flooring and countertop showroom.

I started with Area Floors, then known as The Carpet Place, over fourteen years ago. Previously I worked at Trim Tex, which is now called T and A Supply, for thirteen years, so I have been in this industry quite a while. I like the technical and installation side of the business as much as I love the design end. I gained a lot of hands on experience when my contractor husband and I remodeled our home. My roll at Area Floors as the Accounts Manager allows me to continue to make Area Floors service and customer experience the best it can be.
