I'm an interior designer with 15+ years experience in residential and hospitality design currently based in North Idaho, servicing projects near & far.

​

I built my career at AvroKO, a hospitality design firm, creating award winning restaurants & hotels around the world for clients like Ritz Carlton & Joie de Vivre. I led projects that were featured in publications such as the New York Times, Travel & Leisure & Interior Design Magazine and won awards for Hotel of the Year in various competitions. In 2018, I branched out on my own to focus on historic renovations & residential design in the San Francisco Bay Area where I completed many multi-million dollar projects. In 2022, we relocated to a small town in North Idaho in search of a way of life that was slower, safer & more aligned with our values: seasonal living, connection, organic food, holistic living.

​

Since childhood, I’ve been subconsciously studying the art of creating a meaningful home & life. When I was a child, I wanted to be a waitress. I loved setting the table, having great food, & creating a memorable experience for others. Not a lot has changed in this regard, except, perhaps, my definition of what I wanted to be. As I grew older, I realized my purpose was creating beauty, connection & intention through design. This ultimately led to a new vision of how to work together and what I can offer clients. 

​

With a combined background in design and psychology (Masters in Interior Architecture & a B.A. from UC Berkeley), I am passionate about creating intentional spaces that are not only beautiful, but truly reflect & support you. Our spaces subconsciously communicate our values, our struggles & our goals whether we are aware of them or not. 

 

It's so easy to sleepwalk through life, distracted by work, life, & family that your home isn't a priority. One day I woke up & realized I had no time for hobbies, joy or really any conscious understanding of who I was and what I truly liked versus what I liked because it was trendy. Do you identify with this feeling? Perhaps your house is full of the latest pretty objects but it still doesn't quite feel like home or perhaps you find yourself living in a sparse space of hand me downs that were supposed to be temporary but are still in your space years later. The overwhelm of choice leaves you not knowing where to even start. My experience with overwhelm began a 10 year process of inner work and self discovery that I have taken the best bits of to share with you. I realized that if I, as a person who lives and breathes design, had struggled to define my style and create a space that felt like me, then other people most definitely had this problem. And because I had spent 10+ years trying to answer these questions: Who am I?, What do I value?, What do I like?, I was in a unique position to help others. I'm here to show you how you can make the home of your dreams a reality the way I have for myself and countless clients.

​

We do this through a framework I created to help you reflect on who are you, how your past may be subconsciously showing up in your space, and how we can program the future you & all the moments you long to create into your home. I translate what we discover from your work into intentional, meaningful design ideas that reflect you. You leave feeling empowered & clear on how to create your home. One part therapy; One part design.
