New seat at the table, and I’m so excited about this one. 🤍

I’ve officially joined the IDS Detroit 2027 Board of Directors as Social Media Chair alongside the amazing Denise of Detroit Stone & Tile.

Congratulations to the entire board. I can’t wait to see what we build together.

Designers, what kind of content would actually help you? I’m listening 👇🏾

And if you’re not following IDS Detroit yet, now’s the time. Better yet become a member!
Good things are coming.

Before I was a designer, I was a corporate project manager. I spent 15+ years running IT, infrastructure, construction, and healthcare projects where timelines were tight and margins weren’t optional.

That discipline is the backbone of how I run my studio today.

I’m joining the panel at Design Edge Midwest to talk about Systems That Save Your Profit Margin: how structure, process, and clear scope protect your bottom line (and your sanity).

Wednesday, November 4 | 2:00–3:00 PM
Hosted by Dwayne Bergmann Bergmann, with Caroline Van Wassenhove and Jasmin Reese Interiors

Beautiful design is the result. Systems are how you get there profitably.

See you there. đź–¤

New week, same rule: work in a room that makes you want to show up.

This office captures the client’s funky but rooted in nature personality. Magnolias on the wall, an antique blue lacquer campaign desk from 1stDibs that means business, gold that catches the morning light, and art with a whole lot of attitude. When your space has a point of view, your work starts to have one too.

What’s the first thing you’re tackling this week?

So in love with the Magnolia Bloom wallpaper by Milton & King The botanical inspired sconces by Currey & Company were perfect for the space.

Who said office chairs had to be boring? This Four Hands chair is stylish yet comfortable

The Spruce reached out and asked me what actually makes a kitchen timeless.

I’m sharing a few of the things I told them. Read the full article at the link in my bio for everything that made the list.

What is the one thing in your kitchen you would never change? Drop it in the comments.

Someone on Threads asked how do you store jeans and I shared my system. Next thing I knew the post had over 10K views, so I thought I’d share here as well.

I use gold shower hooks and hang them by the belt loop. Dark to light, left to right. Typically there isn’t tension on the belt loop but if there is, I fold the jeans and double the loop.

I installed this closet in 2024 and it has been working great. I still love the gold pipe system. When I can see everything at a glance it makes getting dressed so much easier.

What is your system? Drop it below.

An invite from at and an evening inside . Yes and yes.
Watching J Schatz and walk us through their full process, from the color studies on the worktable to the kiln, was the kind of behind-the-scenes moment you don’t forget. This is Detroit-made design at its finest and I am proud to be in a city that produces work like this. Thanks to for a discussion.

Grateful for the connection. Love the Detroit Design community.

And no I didn’t plan to match the studio, it just happened. I literally changed what I was wearing as I walked out the door! Cool coincidence 🧡🩵💚
