About ME
ABOUT ME
Listen, empower, support.
I love to talk, just not about myself…so I’ll keep it brief.
I absolutely love how things can transform, sometimes with the simplest tweaks, and the happiness (and relief!) it creates for clients. Life is short so living in a space you love *is* important, wearing things that make you feel good about your body *is* important. And so very often overlooked. Tackling this on your own can be scary and stressful and overwhelming, so that’s why I’m here, to provide a fun and enjoyable experience.
Now, if you really want to know about my background, here you go….
I’m a native North Carolinian happily retired from the non-profit world. In my former life, I worked in events, corporate sponsorships and major gifts, capital campaigns, marketing and communications in collegiate athletics, medicine and higher education. I’ve always been interested in finding solutions, making things functional while not sacrificing style.
A hippie at heart, I like to reuse and repurpose where I can. Fiercely committed to individualism, I want my clients to feel heard and appreciated for their uniqueness. I’ve been styling as a side gig since college where I minored in psychology. Why mention that? Well, it’s because I’m part designer and part therapist. Whether the project is a small closet assessment or a new build with endless choices, clients need someone who they can talk to, trust and who understands how to articulate their needs. Also…who decides to go full time with a small business during a global pandemic? This gal.
MY INSPIRATION
Bringing a smile to someone’s face, or creating a sense of relief, when they find their style. Witnessing the confidence that comes through taking pride in embracing style! Trying new things and stepping out of the comfort zone, whether that is wearing something other than black or painting those ‘builder beige’ walls!
