About Me
xoxo
I have been designing interiors for as long as I can remember. As one of those kids who always wanted to be an interior decorator, I started my career while still in college in Southern California designing model homes for multiple firms in Orange County and Los Angeles.
As we moved into the 21st century. I headed over to the east side of the Rocky Moutains and enjoyed some fresh air. I continued designing interiors for new home buyers and expanded into residential design while starting my own company specializing in model home merchandising.
Since the pandemic, I have relocated again, but this time to “the other west coast” settling in sunny Southwest Florida!
I love to travel and explore new exciting places. Follow my blog for updates on what I am doing and the new places I’m experiencing.
