For me, interior design has always been about elevating more than aesthetics – it’s about enhancing overall mental well-being. My fascination with interiors began early, sparked by a childhood spent rearranging my small bedroom and discovering how thoughtful design could positively impact my emotions. This experience laid the foundation for my passion for creating spaces that inspire and soothe.

After earning my Interior Design degree from Bellevue College, I spent over 17 years in commercial design, specializing in healthcare and interior architecture at leading Seattle-based firms. Designing spaces that promote healing and rejuvenation shaped my holistic approach to residential design – blending comfort, intention, and a connection to nature. In 2020, I founded Design to Elevate, bringing my vision of laid-back luxury to communities in the greater Seattle area.

We were recently honored with the Rising Star Award in the 2024 Northwest Design Awards, which recognizes our commitment to creating elevated, functional spaces that reflect our clients’ lifestyles.
