THE THEORY OF COLOR & DESIGN

"A room should never allow the eye to settle in one place. It should smile at you and create fantasy."

– JUAN MONTOYA

NO MORE DARK, OUT OF FOCUS PICTURES ON THE WEB

I invest in training & Development

I hold two design certifications that have strengthened my staging and decorating expertise. These certifications allow me to help sellers transform their homes so they stand out online, attract more buyers, and sell faster — often for a higher price.

I help buyers see the hidden potential in homes that might not look perfect at first glance. I show you what a house could be with smart updates and design ideas, so you can find real value and create your dream home.
