Years in the Industry:

4

When I’m not working you can find me:

In the kitchen. When I am not designing, I am cooking for my family and friends. At a sporting event, it truly doesn’t matter what sport, I just enjoy the atmosphere and competition. Or I am outside either hiking, boating, or playing games.

Cause/charity I support:

American Cancer Society. I moved back to Grand Rapids after being gone a decade to take care of my terminally ill Grandmother, Patsy Jamieson. She passed away on Mother’s Day 2019 from stage 4 melanoma. I’m eternally grateful to her for the unconditional love she gave me.

Famous person (dead or alive) I would most like to meet:

Kristen Bell. She has such an infectious personality. I love that she is from Michigan and that being a celebrity hasn’t gone to her head. Her company Hello Bello makes affordable baby products because she believes all babies deserve the best.

Favorite place I would like to visit or have visited:

My favorite place in the world is on 30A. I’ve been going to the beaches there since I was 18 months old. The sand is so white my parents would take me there at Christmas and say that it was our “snow”. There is something so healing about sand and salt water.

A little more about me...

I began my career in Interior Design while living in Nashville, TN. My passion for design came at a young age through travel and art. While studying at The University of Alabama (Roll Tide!) I helped doing the buying for a high-end clothing boutique and saw the direct correlation between fashion and interior design.
