received a BFA in Furniture Design at Savannah College of Art and Design while simultaneously working within the luxury hospitality field to scope her career path.
She was born and raised in Savannah, GA and has a deep love and connection with the history and architecture within the historic town. She originally started her journey through SCAD within Interior Design, but quickly fell in love with Furniture Design because of its balanced toggle between digitally designing and building with her hands. She has achieved Dean’s List on many occasions through her college career and is proficient in 3D modeling and rendering software.
Her career goal is finding a niche within the luxury hospitality sector of Furniture Design by designing for companies that specialize in boutique and unique hotels worldwide.

EXPERIENCE
How can designers use furniture to transform travel experiences into lifelong memories?
Why Symphony?
The natural structure of a Classical Symphony is comprised into four movements - each more unique than the last.
Movement 1: quick tempo in sonata-allegro form
Movement 2: slow and lyrical
Movement 3: minuet or duet
Movement 4: grand finale in sonata-allegro form
And like the structure of a symphony, this collection is designed into four movements:
CONNECTION
I’ve been reading music and playing instruments since the age of five. Music plays large parts in all our lives. Studies have shown music can trigger the hippocampus of our brain which connects auditory memories to visual ones. .
INSPIRATION
True luxury hospitality is hard to come by. Creating memorable vacations for anyone who steps on property is an experience unlike any other.
I am a concierge at the #1 Hotel in Savannah, Perry Lane Hotel. There’s a reason we’re #1, it’s not just the beautiful architecture and interior design you see here – it's the lasting effect we have on our guests.
