that support sustainability, sensory experience, and human well-being. Combines

PHILOSOPHY Since I was a little girl, I have always reached for the stars, sometimes quite literally, stretching my hands toward the sky and wondering what it would feel like to touch them. That sense of curiosity, wonder, and possibility continues to shape the way I approach interior design. I believe thoughtfully designed spaces should make people pause, look closer, and feel something. A space should invite curiosity through its details, create a sense of order and purpose, and inspire people to experience their surroundings in new ways. I strive to design environments that engage the senses and encourage people not only to move through a space, but to notice, appreciate, and remember it. As I have grown as a designer, I have become especially passionate about sustainability and the responsibility we have to design for both people and the planet. I believe good design should consider the present without compromising the future. By making thoughtful material choices, reducing environmental impact, and creating spaces that can adapt and endure, design can become a positive force for the generations to come.

EXPERIENCE

spaces should be designed for everyone. I aim to create environments where people of different abilities, backgrounds, and experiences can feel welcomed, comfortable, and considered. Ultimately, I want my designs to inspire the same feeling I had while reaching toward the stars: the desire to look up, wonder, and imagine something more. I hope to create spaces that leave people feeling more connected to their surroundings, to one another, and to the possibilities ahead.

FINAL DESIGN SOLUTION Rivera Condo is shaped around the family’s love of gathering, culture, and expressive design. Open living spaces encourage connection and entertaining, while more private rooms offer separation for rest, work, and individual routines. Mexican-inspired color, handcrafted details, natural materials, and layered textures give the home a strong sense of identity without feeling overly traditional. The outcome is a lively, personal interior that reflects both the family’s heritage and the way they live today.
