My superpower is seeing possibilities where others see limitations. This, alongside my years of experience in listening to multiple stakeholders and creating consensus, creates a unique combination of skills that work together to create a room, or an entire home, that is individual to each client. From exploring new ways of living in an old space to renovations that reflect contemporary needs and while honoring history (without making it too precious) to simply helping find common ground between different styles and ideas I listen and create the perfect space for you. ​My particular expertise blends a background that includes education, artistry, project management, facilitation and consensus-building. In addition to my years of interior design expertise, I hold an MA in dance education and have experience with special needs populations that I bring to every design. Those years as an artist mean I can't help but enter a room and consider light, color and how people will move through and be still in a space. This knowledge means that not only will your space be beautifully coordinated, but I also spend time understanding how you move through the space and choreograph the furnishings accordingly. And if your family has additional needs, I have the experience to make sure your home works for everyone who lives there.A creative, project-oriented consultant with more than 20 years of experience in best practices and management in non-profit organizations and community partnerships.
