I believe that the home is a sacred space to live our lives and gather with the ones we love. As an Interior Designer, I am passionate about bringing this belief to life together with my clients. With every project, my intention is to help my client envision and express their unique personality and taste in ways that feel authentic to them.

My love for textiles, colors and art comes from 25+ years working in Fashion as a Creative Director for global brands, having spent time living in Europe and traveling in Asia. These experiences have influenced me greatly and help to inspire the interiors that I co-create.
