Hi Friends,

I have always had a passion for style and design, from rearranging my furniture in my bedroom as a young girl and pulling tear pages from my fashion and shelter magazines, to merchandising and sales at a men’s retailer all throughout college. I have over 15+ years experience in the fashion & interiors industries.

After earning my Bachelor's degree in Textiles and Consumer Science at Florida State University, I worked for a couple start-ups in the fashion industry building my marketing, branding, and design skills, then in 2010, I founded a lifestyle brand, Anchored Style, proudly made in America. After moving from the west coast of FL to Chicago (where I met my husband), then to North Carolina, my passions changed from fashion to interiors. In 2017, I became an accredited staging professional (ASP) and staged over 500 homes in the Raleigh-Durham area and designed 4 model homes top to bottom, plus installed countless others. I enjoy partnering with realtors working with clients to edit down and re-design their homes to sell quickly and for the highest price I love designing homes to bring the homeowners personality out in their space to truly make their space a reflection of them. A strong business passion of mine is consulting with interior design firms to increase operational efficiencies, marketing, and scale!

When I’m not working, I enjoy cooking, wine, and exploring the coast and great outdoors surrounding Cary, North Carolina with my husband and our Boston Terrier, Milly. I look forward to helping you create a space that is the perfect reflection of your personal style on your next project.

I love to design spaces with a collected look. Mixing modern and traditional styles, natural fibers like rattan and seagrass, and topping off with beautiful art, vintage, antiques, and plants to add soul.

Send me an email or give me a call. I’d love to work with you!
