With three decades of design experience my creative journey began in the world of graphic and branding design, where I cultivated an eye for detail, aesthetics, and function. That vision naturally evolved into interiors, where I now merge artistry with strategy to create spaces that are both visually compelling and designed to inspire better living. I believe every space should tell a story and create an emotional experience. An environment where beauty, flow, and personal expression exist in harmony. At Studio S2, which I co-founded with my longtime business partner, we create interiors that are modern, timeless, and profoundly personal, thoughtfully designed around each client’s unique way of living.

I’ve always loved pretty spaces and things. My obsession with aesthetics grew the most over the past 15 years while working at an award-winning agency alongside my now partner and Co-Founder of Studio S2. Surrounded by stunning portfolios and some of the nation’s top creative talent, I honed my eye for beauty while delivering luxury client service for some of the world’s largest companies. It was an organic beginning when our paths came together to create Studio S2, with each of us pursuing our love for design through projects ranging from fully gutted homes transformed into resort-like retreats to smaller redesigns that helped clients elevate their spaces and achieve their goals.
