"Inspired by spaces and encounters that feel treasured and well-loved, I style the world to tell a story…
My journey to creating this multi-faceted design firm was an organic path, one that naturally led me to explore and find my voice within many different creative realms. After starting a career within the fashion industry as a Fashion Stylist in Vancouver and gaining my Diploma in the business of fashion & fashion styling, I decided to further my education in Toronto and earned my Bachelor of Design (with honours) from Ryerson University, complimented by a Minor in Business Communications. During my time in the six, I joined the premier Fashion Agency in the city and quickly moved through the ranks from Marketing Coordinator to landing a seat at the table as a Booking Agent.
After retuning to the West Coast (I couldn't hack the east coast Winters!) I expanded into Prop Styling, as well as personal Wardrobe Styling for the public; it was this experience of spending time within people's homes that presented my transition into working with interiors & decor.
Creating a stunning, personalized space for a client, to me, is no different than curating their personal wardrobe style to suit both their individuality and lifestyle. It has been more than a decade since I began working within interior design and - whether for residential or commercial - I still take the same intimate approach to designing a space that I would with a client looking to refine their personal style through fashion.
Through my story-driven perspective on designing interiors, I grew my public platform and gained access to guest speaking at live events (like the Home + Design Expo across Canada) as well as regular guest expert segments for television appearances... for me, this is where the magic happens. I love engaging with an audience - whether on stage or on camera - and this aspect of my career is a mainstay as one of my favourites. It also led me to collaborating wth brands - from lifestyle to design to everyday living essentials - and the ability to share genuine feedback and insight with my own audience about products & brands that I am aligned with remains inherently rewarding personally.
AT A GLANCE
more than a little obsessed with: my rescue chihuahua, biggie smalls
For me, the relationship between fashion & interiors is both seamless and symbiotic... what influences one, drives the other.
travel fires my soul
happiest by the beach
pet peeve: tanlines
my guilty pleasure/ splurge item: vintage designer handbags
I'm kind of a homebody and I l.ove to entertain...
All about
Creating moments and spaces that tell you a story, the sound of motorcycles & champagne popping, real conversations & personal connections, vintage rugs & well-loved books, 70's rock 'n roll & 90's hip hop, rooms with a sultry vibe, rescue pups.
NOT ABOUT
Hustle culture, long Winters, the colour purple, eating alone, cluttered decor, art that doesn't make you feel something, arrogant behavior, mistreatment of animals, passionless kisses.
agree? we're probably a great fit.
