Now with sixteen years of working experience, I returned to interiors naturally in 2001 as a third generation decorator who grew up in the business. The tradition began and remains with the creative and expressive women in my blended families - two grandmothers, my mother, an aunt, a cousin and me. 'Nature and nurture' prevailed as my appreciation of design and the decorative arts was certainly fostered by watching them in their independent design businesses and home décor boutiques in Palm Beach and Manhattan from the early 80s on.
