I gravitated to the field of interior design because of my passion for art and color. I attended Kean University, one of the most respected universities for design in New Jersey. While there I studied art history, color theory, history of furniture, and architecture. These studies inspired me and brought me into interior design. Putting color and different artistic interpretations together fascinates me.
Getting to know my clients and their tastes along with their design needs is my passion. Many clients say they have no idea of their own style, but after a brief time with them and a good conversation about design, I can target their style and design needs. from small projects like window treatments to enhance a room to large jobs like new construction, which requires me to help them choose floors, tiles, architectural details, furniture placement, paint colors, etc. My job is to know their individual style, budget, and design as far as form and function. I aim to create a room that makes the client happy but does not compromise function or style.
