Interior Designer | Hospitality, Residential, Commercial & Experiential Spaces

I am an Interior Designer with a Master’s degree in Interior Design and experience across hospitality, residential, commercial, and experiential projects. My work focuses on creating environments where people, purpose, and place come together—spaces that are not only visually compelling but also emotionally meaningful and functional.My background includes restaurants, museums, community-focused retreats, and luxury residential interiors. I approach each project through human-centered design, strong concept development, and thoughtful material and FF&E selection, ensuring that design intent translates clearly into the built environment.

I have hands-on experience with space planning, construction documentation, ADA-compliant layouts, and technical drawings, along with client coordination and presentation development. 

I am currently refreshing and strengthening my Revit skills and actively working toward the NCIDQ certification pathway.I am seeking opportunities within interior design or architectural firms where I can contribute to high-quality projects, collaborate with multidisciplinary teams, and continue growing as a technically strong, design-driven professional.Let’s create spaces that inspire, connect, and elevate everyday experiences
