It all began on a beach off the Gulf of Mexico, around the age of 5. Using a stick in the sand, I enjoyed laying out and drawing the rooms in a home. Years later, in high school, I took a technical drawing classes and strived to be the best in the class. A career assessment test determine I should look into becoming a landscape architect. I assume for the love of creating and the outdoors. I have always been an avid DIYer and am constantly redesigning my home. I strive for functionality and affordability. In 2002 I completed a Bachelor of Science degree in Education through Southeast Missouri State University. A year later I found my calling in new home construction. In 2005 I obtained my Real Estate License to learn all I could about the housing market. I use my education to teach everything there is to know about new home construction, resale and design.
I believe your home is a special place to retreat from the outside world. You should feel comfortable, loved and inspired in your space. Working with paint, fabric, furniture, window treatments, and accessories start this process.. Selecting color palettes, arranging the layout of spaces and selecting items based on your preferences and needs brings its all together. You will fall in love with your new space! I enjoy a challenge and like to think outside the box to make your space even better!
My experience is vast. From production and custom home building selections, renovations, landscaping, interior design, paint color selections, staging, and DIYing - I have you covered. I am here to help you conquer your desire to make a change in your home!
