Biography

I’ve always been drawn to creativity, craftsmanship, and the beauty of well-designed spaces. My career began as an Art Director in advertising, where I honed the art of visual storytelling. Over time, my passion shifted toward something more hands-on—interiors, remodeling, and construction.

Today, I bring that full-spectrum design experience to Ablaze, where I’m known for a thoughtful approach, a sharp eye for detail, and an unwavering commitment to quality. Whether I’m refining a layout or managing a full renovation, my goal is always the same: to unite form and function in a way that truly enhances how people live.

I hold a BFA from Columbia College Chicago and an MS in Design Methods from the Institute of Design at Illinois Tech.

I also live on the North Shore with my family, one spirited English Bulldog, and a fish tank that’s practically part of the décor.
