Living Rooms

Let's collaborate on creating the space you truly love! If you're feeling overwhelmed with the idea of decorating, updating or redesigning a space in your home or office - don't worry! I will lead you through the design process collaboratively. With over 30 years of experience in residential and commercial design, I assist my clients in all aspects of decorating.

There are many things that are important to me. They are simple, yet important aspects of my commitment. First, I listen. Second, I design what is not only pleasing to your eye but is also fully functional. Third, I maintain on-going communication through every step of the process. And fourth, my fees are affordable.

No project is too small. I believe that decorating is within the reach of every budget. I look forward to assisting you in creating the space you truly love.
