The early years: Born and raised in Dallas, I was introduced to design at a very young age. Very, very young... picture an infant sleeping under a chair at a summer market. My parents owned an amazing home accessory showroom in the World Trade Center (currently owned by my Aunt) where I spent school breaks working markets, unpacking accessories, and any other odds & ends that needed to be done. In addition to the showroom, my mom owned an award winning home accessory company. The combination of the two paired up with their love of flipping houses long before Ty Pennington started to 'move that bus', put me in the driver's seat to become an aspiring interior designer.

Currently: When my husband & I moved out to his small hometown recently, I wasn't sure how my bachelor's degree in Interior Design could ever fit in here in this simple town. I've always known however that new construction and remodeling projects were at the very core of my designer life. There's something about scouring through hundreds upon hundreds of lighting options and plumbing fixtures that really my heart racing (you too? No? Just me? Well, OK then.) So for today, I work and I blog. I blog and I pin. I pin and I wrangle children. I wrangle children and I wrangle my husband. It's a crazy job and a crazy life, but that's just the way I like it.
So here we go. I hope you can find a few laughs and a few pieces of inspiration along the way. I'm an open book. Pick my brain, pick my designs apart, ask questions.... hire me (wink, wink). Just jump right on in.
