A passion to live a creative life; to spend a part of each day lost in creativity, is what led me to become a designer and artist. To express myself through color, form and texture is that which keeps me happy and feeds my soul. The opportunity to share my creative expression though my artwork and interior design projects, proved the perfect combination for me, of art and career. It is with great passion, that I share the gift of creativity.
A little background.....
After a successful custom jewelry business, I set sail a life long dream of owning a retail store. A special boutique filled with gifts, fine stationery, home decor delights, and of course, my jewelry designs. It was a wonderful experience and would ultimately prove the catalyst for me finding my way to interior design. After five years, I was ready to move forward with my design career. So, I sold the store and entered the prestigious Academy of Art University in San Francisco to begin my education and earn a degree in fine arts specializing in interior architecture and design.
Today......
Along with my most trusted collaborator, fellow designer and best friend, my husband Philip, I own Go Design. A design and build firm located in Austin, Texas, we specialize in large scale residential remodels. For further information about Go Design, please visit our website at www.simplygodesign.com. In addition to interior design, I am actively pursuing an art career and plan to lead workshops helping others to find their creative pulse.
Thank you for stopping by and visiting. I always enjoy hearing from friends, clients and colleagues, so please feel free to leave comments on my journal postings or if you like, contact me directly through email.
