A typical day in my life includes…
I can’t say there is a typical day in the life of a designer. Some days are heavy in preliminary design at the office, some with material selections at our amazing vendor shops around town and others are filled with jobsite visits or installations. I love the variety.
I was born…
in Phoenix and am a second generation AZ native. A rare breed!
My favorite thing about Arizona…
the weather. I love hiking and being outdoors and AZ is an awesome place to do that any time of the year.
I’m listening to…
podcasts! So many podcasts.
My family…
means the world to me. My fiancé and I love to travel to new places, hike and share life’s little and big adventures. And my mom and I are two peas in a pod.
If I could have dinner with anyone, it would be…
my family. I am always happy with a relaxed evening at home and some down time!
One thing I cannot live without…
creativity! I have always loved anything that used my creative juices – scrapbooking, painting, sewing, the design process. Oh, and coffee in the morning. With creamer. Lots of creamer.
When I was younger, I wanted to be…
Wonder Woman.
I’m inspired by…
so many things – my family, travel, nature, beautiful materials…
The one person who motivates me is…
my mom. She worked so hard to help me get where I am today and I always want to continue to make her proud.
If I could change anything in the world, it would be…
for all humans and animals to know and experience love and kindness. Sometimes a simple and small act of kindness can have a great impact.
The perfect day would be…
a great hiking adventure with my family.
My first job was…
baby sitting for my neighbors. I remember feeling like such a grown up!
My favorite escape…
hiking anywhere and everywhere, especially the trails less traveled. It just helps me to disconnect from technology and any worries in life and refuels my soul and creativity.
My life…
is truly blessed.
I’m currently working on…
several fun projects from Flagstaff to Gilbert with amazing clients ranging from new builds to remodels to spas to shooting ranges.
Always…
make time for the people you love and the interests or hobbies that rejuvenate your soul – I have learned no matter how much I have going on those things help keep me well grounded and much happier.
Never…
jump to conclusions.
Favorite Quote…
“Have courage and be kind.” Yes, I am quoting Cinderella, but there are often days when this simple notion feels quite poignant.
Biggest Dream…
to travel the world – still so much to see and be inspired by!
My Pet Peeve(s)…
different temperate light bulbs mixed together at the front of a house or in the same chandelier/fixture…seriously it drives me crazy!
