As a Vermont interior designer, my philosophy is straightforward: I believe that the most beautiful and meaningful aspects of life emerge from the desire for transformation, personal growth, and the need to rebuild– and that the best things in life are born out of the need for reinvention.

As human beings, we can’t help but be multifaceted, dynamic, and, well, colorful. In my two decades in the financial services industry, an industry not known for its creativity, I learned that it’s possible to lead cross-functional teams and manage high-budget projects while, yes, maintaining a sense of creativity.
