My path to interiors started with a dollhouse—twelve rooms, an attic, a 1920’s kitchen, tiny-pattern wallpaper, and real wiring for our mini chandeliers.

Each year, my father and I would renovate one room like it was a real house. It was my first exposure to pattern, texture, proportion—and to the joy of building a space over time.

From there, I worked in home décor retail, learned how to style towels and consult on paint colors, and even bought my first set of white porcelain dishes at fifteen. (They still live in my cabinets today.) Over the years, I’ve built scale floorplans in Adobe InDesign, sourced furniture for friends across the country, and refined my process for turning any room into a version of “finished” that still feels comfy cozy.

That creative instinct grew into Black Wren Studio (my corporate brand consulting group) where I’ve led brand and design projects for national companies. But it was the interiors work that clients started asking for—and that I secretly love the most. Designing a Brand Immersion Room for a tech headquarters in San Francisco. Reviving a 40-foot gallery wall inside a historic Long Island loft. Helping people transform their powder rooms, bedrooms, and backyards with nothing but clarity, color, and a solid plan.
