RESUMé

A little
bit ABOUT
ME

I’m a Boston transplant via New York with a BFA in Interior Design. Over the past decade I have enjoyed honing in on my craft while collaborating with incredibly talented professionals. I am a true lover of all things aesthetically pleasing and people pleasing. From gnome themed weddings to trendy seasonal campaigns, I am proud of each project that has led me to be the creative I am today. I would love any opportunity to create and inspire with you.
