please, let me introduce myself

I enjoy the creative aspects of interior design, but I also know that practical side of design is equally important to customers. As someone who has undergone 2 major remodels herself, I fully recognize the importance of being detailed, cost-conscious, and able to clearly communicate design goals.

a very warm welcome, nice to meet you....

With my unique background, I’m excited to help you create your own personal sanctuary.  As a graduate of The Interior Design Institute, and with over 20 years of experience in social studies, psychology, and health fields, I have developed a keen understanding of how to integrate elements into your home that enhance overall well-being.  Together, we can craft designs that inspire happiness, calm, connection, the pursuit of interests, and restoration.

I’m a proud native of California, born and raised in the East Bay, just like my husband! When I’m not immersed in design work, you can find me shuttling my two daughters to their various sporting activities. I enjoy listening to podcasts (especially when weightlifting), watching documentaries, reading eBooks through Libby, and playing fetch with our energetic Lab, Roxy.
