Judy George's Key Accomplishments Include . . .

Judy George is Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Domain Home Fashions.

The success of Domain, Judy’s Boston-based specialty chain, has established her place at the forefront of the home furnishings industry.

The merger of Aga and Domain positioned the company as the first specialty retailing chain in the U.S. to offer upscale consumers a total approach to the home by combining Domain’s exclusive home furnishings with Aga’s premium brands for kitchen, bath, hearth and more.

Ms. George has also co-authored two books. In her first book The Domain Book of Intuitive Home Design, Judy identifies four different personality types and explores how they express themselves through their aesthetic choices. In her second bookThe Intuitive Businesswoman, Judy applies the same concept to women and business.
