About
My basic philosophy is to develop a well-defined plan that can be implemented all at once or over time. In this fashion, the investment made in the project is maximized whether it is as simple as furnishings and color selections or a complete remodel. Services range from hourly consultations, materials and furnishings selections, custom window treatments and soft home fabrications, as well as custom designed millwork and furniture, space planning, and project management and renovations. Interior design is my passion, and I enjoy working in different and varying architectural periods, styles, and color palettes that reflect the personality of my clients.
