up the balance of the space. There’s a
certain zen quality when everything is
well-proportioned in a room, even if the
colors don’t match perfectly. Sometimes
people will have me come and look at a
space because it feels “off” and they can’t
pinpoint why. It’s often an issue of scale.
But I truly welcome and am inspired by
all types of design.
What is your philosophy on design
and life?
You only have one life. Design (and life)
should make you feel good, it should be
livable, and it should inspire you to be
your better self. That being said,
be yourself!
What are some hobbies or passions
you pursue other than design?
I love to travel and explore new cultures.
I’m also passionate about getting
involved with and supporting local
parks. And anytime I can support arts
causes or other artisans, I’m in.
If you weren’t an interior designer,
what would you be?
I used to want to be a doctor, so I would
have continued to pursue medicine to
improve people’s health. Instead, I get to
improve their environment.
