I grew up in the Chicago and San Francisco Bay Area and have always been inspired by urban decor and architecture. I currently reside in Monarch Beach with my husband and two teenage girls. I am an alumni of CSU Sonoma having started my career in sales for a Fortune 100 company. I left the corporate world after realizing that the smell of blueprints, cut wood and paint made me smile! I went back to the books receiving an Interior Design Degree with honors from The Art Institute. Teachers dubbed me "The Designer to Watch". I knew I found my passion!
