ABOUT ME
I graduated with honors in 1998 when I received my AA degree for Interior Design. Shortly before graduation I became an invaluable asset for Camille Fanucci of Interior Design Concepts. I quickly learned what a designer does, established contacts at SFDC, selected fabrics, furniture, and building materials. I met with clients professionally, created furniture plans, wrote proposals, purchase orders, and invoices with specialized interior design software.
In 2006 I began my own interior design business. I made true, long lasting connections with my clients, and their families. I continue to create exquisite designs leading a team of installers, fabricators, and contractors.
I have performed work in California, Arizona, and Seattle. I enjoy traveling for work and pleasure. Ideally, I would like to tackle projects throughout the United States and abroad.
I am affiliated with ASID, IIDA, and NEWH. I graduated with my Bachelors Degree in the Spring of 2023, and currently working towards the NCIDQ exam.
