The Philosophy of Essential Space

Ever wonder why some places just feel better than others?

Close your eyes and picture it: your perfectly worn armchair for escaping into a book, the undisputed "best seat" at your favorite restaurant, or the sanctuary where you retreat to focus on work. These aren't just random preferences; they're evidence of a powerful, invisible force at play.

What if I told you these magnetic, comforting places are the product of intentional design?

I believe the spaces we truly love—the ones where we feel the most ourselves—are not accidents. They are the result of good design: a deliberate, harmonious, and enduring craft that turns a mere place into your absolute favorite refuge.

Well designed spaces not only feel great to be in, they are essential foundations that enable a team—or a family— to thrive and operate at its best.

About Me

For over two decades, I’ve designed spaces that inspire deep connection and true well-being.

My journey has spanned the commercial, retail, and residential sectors, deeply immersed in the problem-solving practice of design. I’ve seen firsthand how a thoughtful environment impacts our lives: whether designing a massive corporate headquarters or simply making space for a new nursery in a little bungalow, I know that design plays a powerful role in how we feel, function, and operate.

My career began designing exquisite furniture for RH, and I went on to serve as the Director of Design Strategy at LinkedIn. Today, I bring the strategic rigor of what I learned in tech—and a Master of Interior Architecture from RISD—to every project.

I excel at taking complex brand or personal visions and translating them into cohesive, highly functional environments that look amazing and feel even better to be in.

As an enduring optimist, I ensure my projects are as stress-free and joyful as possible, managing all details from concept through construction to deliver beautifully designed and meticulously managed results—all while having fun along the way.
