Welcome to my design corner!
The world of interior design and all things related to the home.
For those of you that don't know me let me start by saying I am a Jesus-Lovin', wife, momma of two, athlete, and life-long learner. Thats a mouth full! I started my creative journey by being a hair stylist, while I went to college to earn my first bachelor's in business-marketing.
I TOLD YOU, I'M A LIFE-LONG LEARNER. After graduating college, I went to work for a pioneer in the home improvement industry being a project coordinator. I left that job after a couple of years to pursue a creative endeavor of owning one of Houston's first mobile hair salons. I traveled around in a 31' RV that I had renovated to do bridal hair. Whelp driving around Houston, the never-ending construction site was not the best business idea. I spent gobs of time in TRAFFIC! I should have also mentioned I am a busy body. While I had my mobile hair salon, I was also renovating investment properties. That was fun! I liked that. Sooooo, I went back to college to learn about interior design. My husband had his doubts on how I was going to get a bachelors in pillows. Well, that's another blog post but let me give you a tid bit, interior design is WAY more than just fabric and pillows.

And on it goes...
So here I am in college again in my mid-late thirties with two littles at home. I told you I'm a busy body. :) While working on my second bachelors in interior design I began to work at various firms such as McCoy Rockford and Kathy Andrews Interiors until landing at a high-end residential design firm. I spent a couple of years learning from some of Houston's finest until I decided to open my own firm in 2023.
And GOES.
This is where you will find me continuing to learn, exploring the boundaries, and making new friends along the way.
