We know you love designing, but what about it do you love most?
I truly believe that design plays a crucial role in shaping our mental well-being, overall happiness, and sense of comfort at home. Growing up in a chaotic and uninspiring environment, where everything felt out of place, left me feeling unsettled and constantly on edge. It impacted my mood daily, making it difficult to find peace.
However, when I moved into an apartment with even just small touches of design—intentional organization and creativity—I experienced a profound shift. My mind felt clearer, my focus improved, and I became more productive. Most importantly, I felt happier, safer, and more at ease than I ever had in my childhood home.
This experience reinforced for me just how powerful design is in transforming our living spaces and, ultimately, our lives. It’s why I’m so passionate about it.
Describe your go-to style:
I’m drawn to contemporary modern design for its blend of sophistication, functionality, and timeless appeal. I love its clean lines, open spaces, and neutral tones, balanced with warmth and personality through textures and curated décor. I often gravitate toward minimalism within this style, appreciating its intentionality and refined simplicity. What excites me most is its adaptability—whether bold and artistic or serene and understated, it creates spaces that are both stylish and livable, enhancing how people feel and function in their environment.
What drives you to design?
I am driven by the power to transform spaces into clients vision while enhancing function and by the profound impact design has on mental well-being and comfort.
