The two of them also have fun on set.

However, Salmoni’s design work extends past what she does on HGTV.

She also founded her own design company called Debra Lillian Design.

She has said that interior design felt like " a really unattainable dream " (viaHGTV).

She worked in marketing for a while, but she eventually found her way to her career in design.

She started at Timothy Johnson Design before founding her design company.

Creating a successful design career helped Salmoni get the gig for “Scott’s Vacation House Rules.”

A direct message on Instagram is actually how Salmoni got the inquiry to work on the show.

However, Salmoni almost missed the opportunity!

“And I thought it was spam,” Salmoni toldTV, Eh?

“They followed up a few times.

And then, finally, I replied, ‘Is this serious?’

We had a conversation, and it went really, really well …

Within six weeks, I was on TV, filming with Scott [McGillivray].

I’d never done television before.

No desire to be on television.

It’s really serendipitous.”

Salmoni is not the only member of her family who has found their way in front of TV cameras.

The Salmonis got married in 2015.

They now have two children.
