My Design Inspirations

How did I get started?

When I was 10 years old my dad started bringing home Architecture magazines and talking about his dream house. I became really fascinated in houses. I wanted to be an architect, but then I realized that architects need to know A LOT of math and math is not my best subject. I get my creativity from my dad. He was going to be an architect, but decided not to for the same reason. So he chose Healthcare. My dad was really good and I wanted to be just like him. I was really disappointed when I realized I couldn't be an architect and I started exploring other options. I soon realized that an Interior Designer does basically the same thing, but I wouldn't need to be a math wiz to be good.

I have always loved to draw and create. There have been times that I would get a design idea in my head and I would not be able to sleep until I got it out on paper; I would stay up until the wee hours of the morning just to get my design out of my head and on paper. I love seeing how colors, materials and other elements can work together to make an amazing space.


Someday I hope to own my business designing affordable and long-lasting designs for clients. Design isn't something that people want to spend a lot of money on. I like to reuse and re-purpose things. Not only is this cheap but it's Green Design too. So it saves our beautiful environment.
