About the studio
Trained on plans.
Finished by hand.
Interior designer based in Seattle. A Bachelor of Science in Interior Design
from Eastern Michigan University, a steady pencil, and a deep respect for
the barrier-free guide.
My work starts on paper — programming, space plans, sections. Only once the structure works do I let the mood in. Materials, light, the way a room feels at 6 p.m. in November. That order matters.
I work with residential clients who want a home that earns its life, with staging companies that need inventory to hit the photograph, and with hospitality operators who want small footprints to feel generous. Alongside the interiors practice, I co-lead Sweet and Soul Design, a wedding and event studio in Greater Seattle.
