"I love helping homeowners discover what resonates with them, and designing in response to their specific wants and needs. The end goal is to create spaces that are beautiful, functional and deeply personal."
Experience

Before joining the Next Stage Design team in 2016, I spent more than 10 years managing Sunset magazine’s Idea House program, where I partnered with leading architects, builders and designers to design and build award-winning show homes throughout the western United States.

In my free time, I enjoy great food, road trips, and updating my 1956 ranch home.
