As the daughter of an interior designer and entrepreneur, some of my earliest memories are playing on the construction site of what was to become one of my family’s first homes. Later, we moved to a Federal Style house built in 1832 that had fallen into disrepair. Doing much of the work themselves, my parents' ensuing 10-year design and renovation project saw me through to college years, where I graduated from Indiana University with a B.A. in Journalism. Eventually, through their persistence and hard work, our home was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. This upbringing influenced me to pursue my own career in home design and renovation.
Building upon a passion for creating beautiful & cohesive concepts, my background spans more than 25 years in the construction industry including working for two custom home builders; completing numerous remodeling projects of my own and dozens of projects for others. Drawing on this breadth of experience, I have come to deeply appreciate the attention to detail required to achieve intentional & inviting design. This work requires partnering with seasoned & skilled craftspeople who take great pride in their work using high-quality materials. Many of these relationships span more than a decade, and I bring this pairing to each of my projects.
My current work includes broad-scale interior design and project management services such as:
Creating beautiful & cohesive design concepts for the home or office including all furnishings and finishes
Assisting owners with building material selections from floor to roof
Modifying blueprints and/or floor plans
Managing building & renovation projects from start to finish
MOTIVATION
At the heart, I’m all about community and hospitality, and I love creating space where community can be fostered. For me, it's not about fancy things or pretense — rather it’s about creating space that's inviting, warm, and welcoming. I want to help my clients, “go there!”
Ephesians 3:20 says, “Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we can ask or imagine according to his power that is within us, to Him be the glory…”.
These words inspire me to think, dream, and imagine a bit bigger, more broadly, and more boldly because I serve a Lord that has no limits. I want to bring some of that to the clients who entrust me with the importance and heart of their projects.
