My Story
Design Your Life With Confidence
After 13 years of running an award-winning interior design firm, I started to realize that I ‘liked’ what I was doing, but just didn’t love it anymore. I felt unfulfilled, overworked, and was yearning for something different. Something else. More connection. More meaning. More purpose.
In 2022, acknowledging career burn-out and longing to break my pattern of unhealthy personal relationships, I found myself standing on the precipice of ‘do I stay, or do I go’ and decided to shift my perspective, my career, and my purpose, and re-design my mission, my focus, and my future.
Personal transformation is a significant act that takes courage, compassion, patience and persistence.
I have pushed and pulled myself through the peaks and valleys of intentional healing to fully understand who I am at my core, and where my beliefs and boundaries are truly meant to live.
Through some tough lessons in self-discovery and searching relentlessly to uncover my own truth, I took a leap of faith, dug into my authentic courage and wrote a book. Which subsequently had me embarking on a new journey toward what I have been seeking most of my life: honest self-acceptance, a deeper understanding of self-love, and a clear pathway towards a more fulfilling life.

Enthusiastic Outdoors Type
I love to hike, walk, and run with my dog, Artie, take pilates classes and high intensity work-outs, showshoe, go boating, spend the day in the woods exploring, and have been known to sink a few putts on the golf course.

I love laughing. Laughing is one of my favorite things to do and believe it is one of the healthiest habits we can cultivate.

Creative Chef
I love to cook, and my friends would agree that I’m damn good at it. However, I don’t follow recipes very well and lean more towards using my creative license whenever I’m in the kitchen.

The Chameleon Diaries: Designing A Life Worth Changing For
#TheChameleonDiaries
I wrote my first book in 2023. What started as a combination of storytelling turned into a cathartic expression of vulnerability and truth-seeking.

I can’t wait to see what happens next!
#lookingtowardsthefuture #nothingisgoingtostopme
I would love to share my message and methods with you!
As I dug into my own emotional, psychological and spiritual healing (that was long overdue) and worked with my coaches and therapists (and there have been many) – I began to liberate myself from the clutches of self-doubt and limiting beliefs and discovered how to align my personal mission statement with confidence and unrelenting inspiration.
From value systems and virtues to self-acceptance and self-love, I have re-calibrated my compass and set my direction towards sharing my messages of fulfillment, and teaching the methods and lessons I’ve learned along the way.
For those of you who are ready to take control, feel empowered, and own your worth, I invite you to join me, however you can, and pivot towards designing your best future, and a life you are truly proud of.
