About Me

My journey into the world of Interior Design began with a love of fashion. I majored in Fashion Design from The Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandise in Los Angeles, California. At FIDM, I inadvertently learned the building blocks for space planning, textile and color interplay, style, and function, all of which are integral aspects of exceptional interior design. Upon graduation, I went directly into retail which honed my ability to rearrange, stage, and merchandise. Additionally, I was a buyer and manager for boutique retail stores. Developing a keen eye and operating within budgets are essential to all things design, whether it be fashion or interiors.

​

My design path was set in motion by helping family and friends rearrange and declutter their homes. Restyling became a passion; no job too small, no problem unsolvable. I was fortunate to work for talented designers, Niki Samuel/NPI Designs and Mary Cates/Mary Cates Interiors, in every aspect of the design process. While working on various projects, I gained vast knowledge, experience, and inspiration all furthering my "hands-on education" into the interior design field.

I have said, "I am not a rule follower, but appreciate the structure." I see the entire picture with both logic and creativity, as well as recognizing practical function and flawless design. Your home is a reflection of you and should project your style in the finest way possible suited to your individual needs. "An interior is the natural progression of the soul." - Coco Channel. I couldn't have said it better myself!
