I've loved houses for as long as I can remember. As a little girl I didn't just see four walls — I saw a home. That instinct never left. Walk a property with me and I'm already reading the floor plan underneath: where the light wants to fall, which wall could open up, what an overlooked space could become.

That isn't only imagination. I've led renovations on four of my own homes, and architecture, design, and décor show up every time I walk a house room by room. Beauty matters. So does function. A gorgeous space still has to work for the people who live in it, and I stay with clients through the decisions that make a house livable — not just photogenic.
