Q: On your website you write about being creative and moving from a career in marketing into design. What is your favorite part about your interior design career thus far and how does it fuel your creative passions?
A: Seeing projects from a blank page to completion is so rewarding. As a creative, my inspiration is fueled by having endless options and selections, and each time our designs begin to take shape, my soul soars a little bit higher. Seeing a fully installed home and clients who are beyond thrilled could not be more inspiring for the next project.

Q: How do you begin the design process?
A: I have no borders, no boundaries, and no limitations. I dive right in, with no preconceived notions, and wade through inspiration and motivation until a design begins to reveal itself. Often something small will catch my attention, and all of a sudden, a design is born.

Q: What is your favorite room to decorate and why?
A: I am a sucker for a good living room; the multitude of selections that can escalate into a design is thrilling. The combination of soft and hard selections in Bathrooms get me every time. How could I not love a space that is the most personal of a home? So many options and so many variations that are a cacophony of design at its best.

Q: What areas of the design project are most valuable to splurge on?
A: The obvious areas are the kitchen, bathrooms, lighting, and floor. Withstanding that, I always think about where you spend most of your time and what is most important to you. If you love snuggling in your bedroom all weekend, then splurge away in your bedroom. Create a cocoon with layers of comfort and luxury. If you love the outdoors, the pool patio is an essential area. Create pockets of space to sit outside in comfort, eat a meal, and make incredible family memories. Value and lifestyle are personal and you need to honor who you are in your space
Q: What is your favorite collection from Modern Mirrors and why? (Astral, Aura, Carina, ect... )
A: "The Cassini Collection"
I am currently building a home, and my secondary bathrooms have limited space. I love the fact that I can use the Cassini Collection for functionality, and not compromise on aesthetics at all. They are just gorgeous.
