I am a New England-based interior designer living in Tiverton.

​

As a child I was constantly trying to convince my mom to let me redecorate my room. Having an eye for design, she didn't mind too much, but when she picked up on the fact that I would only wear nightgowns that matched my designs in both color and period style, she lost patience.

​

In high school my dad got me autoCAD and I taught myself how to use it. While the other kids were rushing home from school to hang out with friends, I was rushing home to my computer to design & decorate the latest house I had dreamt up. 

​

I went on to North Carolina State University, majoring in visual arts, for my undergraduate degree, and then on to Boston Architectural College for Residential Interior Design.

​

In July 2016 I purchased a single-family home in East Boston, built c. 1912, and began a two phase renovation project. Phase 1, which included the gut & renovation of everything within the existing footprint of the house, and could be done on a short-form permit, was completed in Spring 2017. Phase 2 included a small addition requiring a long-form permit, and was completed Spring 2021.

​

Ever since high school I had been revising plans for my dream home. In 2019

I bought 2.69 acres on Nannaquacket pond. We broke ground building in February 2023, and by May 2025 I had my certificate of occupancy. It was a long & arduous process, but completely worth it! I named her The Black Iris. ​
