Hello!

I design thoughtful, livable homes throughout California, blending timeless style with everyday function. My goal is always to blend beauty with practicality, creating welcoming environments that feel both elevated and livable.

Design has always been my calling. From a young age, I was constantly rearranging furniture and curating my own space, often saving up babysitting money to buy the perfect accessories to make my room feel just right. That early passion eventually took me to New York, where I studied at the New York School of Interior Design and refined my craft. While living in the city, I also worked in fashion at Barneys New York on Madison Avenue, an experience that deeply shaped my approach to interiors. It taught me so much about textiles, proportion, style, and form. I still think about “dressing” a home the same way you would dress a person, with intention and care.

When I’m not designing, you can usually find me wandering antique markets, heading out on outdoor adventures with my husband and our two children, or enjoying quiet moments at home. That balance of creativity, function, and family is at the heart of my design philosophy, and it shows up in every project I take on. I want each space to feel personal, inviting, and thoughtfully tailored to the people who live there.
