Despite a lifelong love for design, in choosing my course of study in college, I listened solely to the left side of my brain.  I graduated with a degree in Politics and Journalism from New York University, and knew immediately that it was never going to be put to use.  After graduation, I spent years working in the fashion and events industries for Alexander McQueen and Barneys New York before taking a long-overdue leap in 2009 and enrolling at Parsons The New School for Design.  Over the past fifteen years, I have had the opportunity to train under inestimable mentors including Bunny Williams, Elizabeth lawrence, amanda nisbet, and carlos mota.

My approach to design is informed by qualities of history and tradition, juxtaposed with a healthy dose of personality and a bit of the dramatic.  While I’d like to think that my work can speak for me, I’ve come to learn that beyond whatever skills a designer brings to the table, the chemistry between designer and client is integral to making a space beautiful and a project seamless. With every client, my goal is to ascertain not only what they say they love, but to really come to understand how they live so the results exceed their expectations in both form and function.
