Technical aspects of a project, such as lighting, millwork, and interior details where it involves current technology, equipment and electronics or Green and Environmental concerns, are familiar issues. The experience to approach these elements early on in the design process and implement them as part of the overall interior design is what contributes to the success of her beautiful interiors.

"I am not only an Interior Designer, but also a Wife of 25 years, married to my wonderful husband David. In addition, I am a Mother of five daughters, and six grandchildren. Many of my interests outside my family are found outdoor enjoying nature & wildlife, and being active with hiking and bicycling. It is no wonder that my original education pathway was to major in Fisheries & Wildlife at Michigan State University.
