A humancentric approach to design is utilized to optimize user health and well being. Among a sundry of delightful architectural and design elements; space, circulation, light, material language, and proportion are greatly considered to create exceptional environments.
Objectives, values, and style fundamentals are identified, prioritized, and expressed to construct exquisite spaces in which to live joyously, work energetically, relax, and thrive in functionality.
A born creative type. Derived from golden sandy Michigan beaches, Colorado’s terracotta San Juan Mountains, deep blue granite Maine coasts, and now, Oregon's high desert sage. Design has always seemed to be in my bones. A heightened and persistent awareness of the quality of compositions; architecture, light, scale, proportions, materials, colors and textures, to name a few, may never leave me, I fear!
My disposition has guided me towards the arts. Other interests such as Nordic skiing, Yoga, pilates, cycling, music, psychology, nutrition, environmentalism, and explorations in general, also exist.
Travels through France, Switzerland, Italy, Austria, Croatia, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland, and England have exceedingly influenced my design preferences for modern, eclectic, and historical elements, as well as easy and organic sensibilities.
I studied interior design with The Art Institute, and have a degree in interior architecture and design from Academy of Art in San Francisco.
Nice to meet you.
