About Me.
As a first generation student, coming from the small town of Orangeville Ontario, I had no idea what my passion was. I took the one-year Design Foundations course at Fanshawe, and that is where my love for Interior Design had sprouted. Throughout the four years in the Interior Design program, I have grown branches of passion for all aspects of the profession, but I have a strong interest in human-centric design, user wellness, and sustainability. Moreover, I thoroughly enjoy designing spaces where people spend most of their time. I aim to make a difference with my designs, and I would like to create an experience for my clients where I can positively affect their lives.
When I am not focused on becoming an Interior Designer, I am an avid plant lover, a crystal collector, a pet mom, and a foodie. With an apartment full of 23 plants, I also have three pets whom I love very much. My first pet was my dog, Kenzo; he is a pressa canario, husky, and a lab. When Kenzo was a year and a half, my bearded dragon, Draco, was surrendered to me. Last but not least, my kitty, Sushi, has only recently joined our pack.
