As someone who has moved enough times to know… the most comfortable, organized homes aren't always the ones with the most storage. They are the ones that started with a plan and took time to think about the people who live in their home, how it needs to function, and what a dream home means to them.
It’s why I love helping women in their homes. I know how much better life is when your home is easier to maintain. Even when your dog insists on sitting on top of the couch cushions and smooshing them beyond recognition so he can bark at the mailman for the 100th time. Just me?
The women I work with aren't lazy. They're overwhelmed. They've tried all day decluttering, bought out the Container Store, and fallen asleep to the sound of YouTube decluttering and decorating videos.
What they haven't had? Someone in the room with them when the decisions get hard. That’s where I come in.
There's zero judgment here. Whether you have paint swatches on your walls from two years ago or a spare bedroom that's become the place everything goes to hide, I can help.
My mom and I flew to Michigan a while back to visit my grandma.
While we were there, a realtor came to appraise her home. My grandma has lived there for over 60 years. My grandparents bought it (plus the 26 surrounding acres) in 1964 for $7,500… I know. That’s not a typo.
While the realtor suggested she remove a lot of things to appeal to more buyers, I watched my grandma give her a look that would make any sane person back up several steps. In fairness, it may have also been the 7% commission.
But while my sweet grandma was staring down the realtor, I was doing something else. I was looking around at all the surfaces (the coffee table, the dining table, the shelves) and thinking about how we stop seeing the stuff in our own homes after a while. How the things become background noise. We walk past the piles and think, “I’ll deal with that later.”
I've lived in over 15 homes (from tiny apartments to very large homes), which means I've had the opportunity to look at a lot of spaces with fresh eyes and figure out what was worth keeping, what would be better to donate, and what could be added to make the space more beautiful and functional.
But at the end of the day, it’s not the size of your home that matters. And as much as I love a perfectly styled home, that’s not the most important thing. Having a home that feels like a cozy, peaceful retreat from all the chaos life can toss at you, a place where you can actually relax and not have a home to-do list that’s longer than your old Toys R Us Christmas list... that feeling of relief and contentment is what matters.
That's what I help women like you figure out.
SIMPLIFY. Let's define how you want your space to look, feel, and function.
PURGE. We can now get rid of anything that doesn't fit your dream space.
ASSESS WHAT IS LEFT. Does anything need to be replaced? Fixed? Painted? Reupholstered?
CREATE A PLAN. We will make an organizing and interior design plan.
EFFORTLESSLY ELEVATE. It's time to make your room cozy! We will also update those practical items you need... but make them prettier.
SCHEDULE ROUTINES. Lastly, we will set up simplified routines that will help you maintain your beautiful spaces.
Before we touch a single item, we’ll get clear on how you want the room to look, feel, and function. That one step makes every decision that follows easier. It's the first S in SPACES, the framework I use with every client.
I am a Christian who believes in being kind to everyone. Unless you cut me off in traffic... look we all have our limits!
Seriously though, there’s zero judgment here. Whether you have paint swatches on your walls from 2 years ago or a garage stuffed to the brim, I’ve truly seen it all. I’m here to help you create a simplified plan and cheer you on as you create a home you love.
I’m equally obsessed with coastal towns and old-world architecture. Paris, France and Charleston, SC (USA) are two of my favorite places.
My favorite interiors mix new finds with pieces that have a story. Often if a home doesn't feel cozy, it just needs a little texture, an antique or vintage piece, or something made by an artisan.
