ABOUT ME
I'm passionate about transforming homes and lives through interior design.
about ME
I'm an accomplished interior designer, speaker, writer, and on-air contributor who has turned my lifetime passion for interior design into an opportunity to do the same for others. As a young man, my interest in creating beautiful spaces was sparked by my family’s talent in home building and renovations.
Soon, I began remodeling and redesigning home after home and combined a trade taught by my family with my natural aesthetic ability. Shortly after my career launch, I appeared on HGTV; and through this experience, my personality and design perspective were visible to a larger audience; and I was soon designing homes across the country! Next, I joined a prestigious interior design firm/furniture design company in Los Angeles, CA. Here, I gained an appreciation for the sophisticated west coast design style while collaborating on designs for many LA homes-including several celebrity clients.
Fast forward and I have design firms on both US coasts, become a business coach, author, while still overseeing both of my offices. I'm so excited to share my decades of experience with you!
Eternal optimist, animal advocate, travel addict, and lover of all things home and the business of home.

part of my job
That moment after a room is complete or a course has been taught and I see the smiles on the faces of my clients. Then we all pour a cocktail.
Our clients are seekers of beauty, lovers of life, with a need for balance and beauty.
