Creativity has always been at the center of my life. My journey began at the Arts Institute of Charlotte, where I first pursued Culinary Arts. For 12 years, I worked as an Executive Chef, learning precision, discipline, balance, and the power of presentation. In the culinary world, element matters: texture, proportion, timing, and composition. It is an art form built on intention. Over time, I realized something. While I loved creating beautiful dishes, I found myself equally inspired by the environment surrounding the—the atmosphere, the lighting, and the flow of the space. I was drawn to designing not just what people consumed but also what they felt the moment they entered a room. In 2023-2024, I completed a two-year apprenticeship under Earline Richardson, owner of High Point Furniture Sales, immersing myself in the world of luxury furnishings, material sourcing, scale, and curated interior styling rooted in the High Point design tradition. Today, I blend culinary artistry with interior architecture. I design spaces the way I once crafted menus—thoughtfully layered, beautifully balanced, and intentionally. Because true design is not just about how a space looks. It's about how it lives. How it feels. How it elevates the people inside it.
