Mayfield’s architectural background compliments her creative approach to the programming, planning and design of acclaimed, award-wining projects around the world.

Mayfield received a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Interior Design with a minor in Art History with highest honors from Louisiana Tech University. She began her career as a designer with Los Angeles-based Keating Mann Jernigan Rottet, working on commercial interior projects. She then relocated to Ft. Lauderdale to work with retail giant Pavlik Design Team as a lead designer on boutique and large-scale retail stores. She received the Hart Design Excellence Traveling Fellowship, which led her to study architecture in Saintes, France.

After earning a Master of Architecture from the University of Houston, Mayfield relocated to Barcelona, Spain to join world-renowned architect Enric Miralles at EMBT Architects. She worked closely with Miralles on a number of endeavors. Upon returning to Houston, she teamed up with former colleague Lauren Rottet to help establish DMJM Rottet. In a short period, Mayfield became a principal of Rottet Studio and played an instrumental role in the growth of the firm. In 2010, Mayfield joined longtime colleague Erick Ragni to form MaRS.
