Followed my passion and founded interior design firm as a weekend hobby in 2013 and built a portfolio of high-end residential clientele in Boston, Seattle, Lake Tahoe, and San Francisco. Left AIRINC to take a risk and pursue full-time in Nov 2019 and see if it was the right fit. I learned a lot about myself, the meaning of work, what it means to follow your dreams, and what I find rewarding. Ultimately, I decided that I wanted to reorient toward leading an international team and working on something I found more broadly impactful.
