MY DESIGN JOURNEY

At eight years old, I was building homes out of flashcards and scotch tape, trailing behind my contractor father and emailing the trades from his BlackBerry for ten dollars an hour. Looking back, it’s no surprise that I eventually found my way into a design career of my own.

Finishing my latest projects and taking classes at Parsons The New School for Design taught me many lessons that ultimately shaped the specialties I’m excited to share here.
