What drives you to design?
As a full-time commercial designer for a large metro architecture firm, I strives to apply creative, yet functional solutions within a structure that are a positive reflection of an occupant's lifestyle. I am inspired by learning and understanding people's behaviors and personal needs in a residential application. Taking someone's space and turning it into the home they've always imagined is what motivates me to keep doing what I love most.
Describe your ideal project:
As a younger designer, and a first time home owner, my ideal project will always be finding those must have pieces of furniture, or that one pop of color, and turning your drab space into a work of art, and on a budget.
Describe your go-to style:
My go to style is the soulful, shabby chic look. Reclaimed wood, elegant whites and neutrals, and a mix of modern and antique touches can really make your space have the transitional character that you always dreamed of.
