never worked with an online designer before?
This is all about discovering your vision, and then finding simple solutions to bring it to life. Because it's your house, not mine, and it should be exactly how you want it to be - no matter what your style is!

Between you and your designer.
Design should be personal.
I'm the listener.
The facilitator.
The idea generator.
The finder.
The figure-outer.
But what makes your design magical are the little tidbits of your life and your story that you share with me.
whatever it is
this is working together to figure it out,
Instead, you'll get a design that fits with your budget,
works with your skillset, and feels
uniquely you.
That's just not how good design should work.
I'm not going to speed through your design to create run-of-the-mill plans, showing you only whatever pieces and parts make me the most commission.
This isn't just about getting it done.
I want you to stop feeling overwhelmed with that big home project, and instead feel confident, empowered, and ready to make it happen.
I'm going to listen to what you want, make sure you have everything you need, and then? I'll show you how to get it done, too.

Husband. Bestie. Partner-in-crime.
I firmly believe Saturdays in the fall are meant only for viewing college football. And that every year can be a rebuilding year.
My Mother's family is deeply rooted in Nebraska. So yes, this IS me at age 3 in a formal portrait studio rocking my Huskers gear. Real fans know. And also probably have one of these same portraits.

Cliche? Yes. But also true. And I could never choose between coffee OR tea.
I mean, I came of age in the Northwest in the 90's. But also I love a cuppa.
In any case my collection of tea and coffee pots is getting out of hand.
I cannot function before caffeine.
That is, until I moved back out west in the middle of a serious snowstorm with below zero temps.
But what I'll truly miss about living in the south is getting to have Thanksgiving dinner out in the backyard. And a quick jaunt to the beach in February.
The secret is constant observation, and a reminders list in my phone.
