In The Making

Welcome to In The Making — A Journey of Intentional Design

Design is not just about what we create; it’s about how we experience the world and the spaces we inhabit. As a designer, I believe life is an ongoing process, constantly unfolding and evolving—in the making—just like the spaces we curate. Whether you’re redesigning a room, transforming your garden, or completely reimagining how your environment aligns with your life’s goals, every decision contributes to the bigger picture. I approach each project with the understanding that we can choose to enjoy life right where we are, savoring the moments, details, and spaces that surround us.

My philosophy is rooted in the belief that spaces should reflect who we are, how we feel, and who we are becoming. I specialize in curating environments that enhance not only the beauty of a home or garden but also the well-being of the people who live there. My work is grounded in sustainability, mindful design, and an appreciation for the ever-changing nature of life itself. Just as our lives are in a constant state of flux, so too are the environments we create. These spaces aren’t static—they evolve with us, offering us the opportunity to reflect, grow, and thrive.

At the core of my offerings are Bespoke Design Consultations, where I collaborate closely with clients to create spaces that speak to their unique needs and visions. Whether you’re working on a single room or a larger project, my goal is to offer expert guidance that empowers you to make choices with confidence. Through Curated Small Garden Design, I help you craft intimate outdoor spaces that invite serenity and connection with nature. Additionally, my nonprofit, FLORA, encourages community involvement by teaching students to care for gardens on school campuses, fostering a deep appreciation for nature’s beauty and power.

This blog is a space where I’ll share my philosophy, design tips, seasonal inspiration, and stories from the journey of curating beautiful and intentional spaces. I invite you to subscribe to my Inside & Out newsletter, where you’ll receive exclusive insights, personalized design guidance, and deeper reflections on how to live a more intentional and connected life. Together, we’ll explore how the art of curation can enrich your life in ways big and small—because life, and design, are always in the making.
