I fell in love with the creative process at an early age. For me, art-making in any medium has always been magical and incredibly rewarding. At one time I studied graphic design, however, after a lackluster semester felt disenchanted. All it took to regain that spark was one color theory class. In studying the relationships between colors and discovering how schemes can play against designs, I saw endless possibilities. I soon switched my focus and earned my Associate's Degree in Interior Design and Planning. I also hold a Bachelors of Arts in Business Management.Working for an architectural millwork company was my first introduction to the construction world. Seeing drawings and samples of products used in high end Las Vegas casinos was inspiring. My next job at an energy efficiency company opened the door to building science where I learned about new home construction geared toward zero net energy use. However, it was in my first design assistant role with a semi-custom home builder that I completely fell in love with the home creation process. Helping home buyers select their finishes was the perfect way to combine my vast knowledge and experience up to that point.Throughout the seasons of my career, the unifying aspect has been customer service. I am passionate about providing an elevated experience for clients. My innate ability to build trust through connection and clear communication has served me well professionally and continues to be the foundation of my interaction with the team and clients today.I am an avid locavore and pop culture enthusiast who enjoys exploring nearby events, eateries, and farmer’s markets. My favorite way to spend a weekend is adventuring with my husband and two Boston Terrier "fur-kids."Fun fact: I have a not-so-secret cosplay life on Instagram.
