To Whom It May Concern,
Ms. Kimberly Diamant worked as the Creative Director for Ferretti Group in North America from 2008
through to 2012. Her responsibilities included the overall design and direction for all of the Ferretti
Group’s retail facilities in United States, she was also responsible for leading the design and execution
team for all the boat shows and events. In addition Ms. Diamant was responsible for the interior design
selections and décor configuration of all of the yachts that Ferretti Group ordered for inventory for the
American market, as well as working with clients to configure and select the interiors for their yachts.
In her capacity managing the Boat Shows and Events, Ms. Diamant was instrumental in both enhancing
the design of the Ferretti Group presence at the boat shows as well as dramatically reducing the
expense for the production, build out and staging of the displays. This was accomplished by Ms. Diamant
creating a modular structure for the displays that could be configured for various different events,
layouts and footprints and also using high quality durable materials that could be re-used, re-purposed
and maintained considerable longevity. In addition to her design and architectural talents, Ms. Diamant
also directly project managed the staging, build-out and execution of the display, which she approached
with meticulous attention to detail of design and presentation, timelines and budgets. In my experience
of working with Ms. Diamant she was consistently ahead of schedule and consistently came in below
budgets.
The Ferretti Group Flagship showroom is a state-of-the-art facility in Fort Lauderdale, Florida which is
the focal point for the American distribution operations. Ms. Diamant conceptualized the development
of the location into a multi-use facility that operated as a retail yachts showroom, delivery center, office
environment and events space. Today this unique facility is the premier retail showroom for yachts in
the world and unsurpassed by any other venue.
Working closely with the brand managers, Ms. Diamant also performed a critical role in the décor
selections and configuration of the yachts built for the American market. This required the ability to
work closely with the architects and styling offices for each of the brands in Italy and ensure the yachts
produced for America were specifically orientated toward the American market preferences. This
required a unique understanding of the design capabilities of the shipyards as well as an ability to closely
follow and anticipate American design trends and preferences.

I worked closely with Ms. Diamant throughout her tenure with Ferretti Group America. She possesses
that rare ability to combine creative and design talent with commercial and executional skills, to ensure
that her projects were optimized aesthetically whilst also ensuring they were commercially viable. I
would highly recommend Ms. Diamant to design, lead and execute creative projects for any brand that
requires fresh thinking, an innovative approach and practical implementation.
Yours sincerely,
James Henderson
President & Chief Executive Officer
