Born in upstate New York, I knew from an early age that I wanted to be an Interior Designer. This creative aptitude only was enhanced while attending Siena College as a Creative Arts major, studying fine art, art history, and theater. After Graduating with my B.A. in Creative Arts, I packed my bags, hopped on a South bound train and made the move to New York City, with my two suitcases in hand, as many artist had done before me. It was there that I continued my love of Art & Interior design while I attended the Fashion Institute of Technology, and was able to experience all of the great design, architecture and culture that NYC has to offer. After obtaining an Associates in Interior design, I took two years off from the Interior Design program to follow another passion of volunteering. I applied for a coveted spot of an AmeriCorps working with Habitat for Humanity NYC. I was hired and began a year of service leading daily volunteers to construct and build at a three building 41 unit site in Brooklyn, NY to create homes for those who worked with Habitat for Humanity. After this time of service, I decided to obtain my Bachelors in Interior design from FIT, and graduated top of my class with a B.F.A. in Interior Design. Upon graduation I went on to pursue my passion of Hospitality design by working at large and award winning design firms in New York, including Tony Chi & Associates, working on large international hotel project. After living in New York for ten years I decided it was time for a change and made the move to South Florida where I have worked on a variety of projects, including condominium public spaces & corridors, restaurant design, and commercial office spaces. Each project I look to bring a unique atmosphere and identity to reflect each clients aesthetic. We look forward to helping you envisioning your next venture with us!
