01 About The Designer
I grew up in the small town of Whitehall, WI. Prior to my time at The University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point, I attended Western Technical College in La Crosse, WI for 2 years. I have recently graduated with a BFA in Interior Architecture and a minor in Business Administration. Following graduation I took on the role of Interior Specialist at The Board Store Home Improvements in La Crosse, WI. In this position I conduct Inside sales, provide design advice, and build and maintain relationships with vendors. I also collaborate with the marketing team, developing innovated ways to enhance the showrooms.
​
I have been passionate about interior design for as long as I can remember. Although I am not sure where my interest initially sparked from, I have always felt drawn to it. Since I was young, I have been analyzing spaces and developing different design solutions best for the space.
02 Design Philosophy
​When developing a design, I seek to create an environment that encompasses elements meeting the clients’ desires and demands. Aesthetics, comfort, and function are top priorities in my designs. Accommodations for users of all abilities allows me to meet these goals. I am an advocate for practicing sustainable design and embracing the wellness of others. Seeing an idea come to life is what drives my passion in this field.
