I was always the child to create the largest messes. At sleepover parties, I would suggest we rearrange all of the furniture. I asked for sewing lessons for Christmas and art lessons for birthdays. Most of my childhood memories were centered around my love of art, music and writing; all of the wonderful, creative things that keep our world personal and connected.
As I grew up, I fell into the belief traditional academics would be my only path to success. I studied Accountancy and worked in corporate America after college. During COVID, I worked remotely and battled depression. I began creating again and turned my social media into a fabulous feed of artists, designers, landscapes and architects alike. I became obsessed and inspired, researching their backgrounds, styles and careers. I didn't know what to do, but I did know I wasn't going to keep sitting in my cubicle. I resigned, moved across the state and started over.
Since 2020, I have pursued my passions relentlessly. I studied at the New York School of Interior Design and have worked alongside many talented women. I formed my own company in 2023 and have been serving clients since. From visual works, to private event design, to bespoke handcrafted goods to high-end, residential interior design, my path has been anything but traditional. It has been uniquely my own with each season enhancing and preparing me for the next.
I am fascinated by color. I love to experiment with different mediums and creative objectives. I enjoy seeing the way art and design moves people and influences their lives. I want the art we hang on our walls, the living rooms we sit in and the parties we host to be a reflection of the lives we've lived and the people we are. My hope is to encourage others to live more imaginatively and express their truest self. I draw inspiration from many things but the first to mind are nature, textiles and travel. One of my greatest joys is creating a visual representation of who my clients are. I want to know them and create a lasting relationship. I know their dogs, their backgrounds, the food they like and the places they travel. I can only serve them well by truly knowing their story. Creating for clients who have become lifelong friends has been one of my greatest joys.
If I am out of the office, I am usually thrifting antiques, making something with my hands or working on my 1940s historic home. I have a lovely husband, Ryan, who is my biggest supporter and life partner.
Thank you for being part of my story.
