“I began my design career at the age of four when I started painting and selling rocks. Shortly after that I realized that my bedroom was more than a place to sleep…it was my canvas! My bedroom must have gone through at least fifteen major transformations until I left home. One year I would have a rainbow painted on the wall with my bed placed carefully between it’s archways, and the next year I would transform it into a New York styled loft with bookshelves and a rolling ladder to replace my rainbow. Your space has a direct impact on you. I want to help you change your space and change your life!”
