Thoughtful Design Starts at Home.
Kitchen Refresh | Lake Oswego, Oregon Owner-managed project
This is my own home — and the same standard I hold here is the standard I bring to every client.
The kitchen was original to the 90s — cherry cabinets, laminate counters, and dated tile that stopped short of the ceiling. The goal was a modern, design-conscious look without a full gut renovation.
What changed: upper cabinets above the sink were removed and replaced with open walnut shelving, tile was extended fully to the ceiling for a clean finished look, laminate counters were replaced with quartz, and paint and hardware were refreshed throughout.
The result is a kitchen that feels completely new — bright, modern, and thoughtfully done — at a fraction of the cost of a full renovation.
This is what a well-managed refresh can do.

Destination Beach Wedding
Event Management | Hawaii Beach Wedding Owner-planned event
This is my own wedding — and the same standard I hold here is the standard I bring to every client.
Planning an intimate destination wedding from Oregon meant managing every detail remotely: securing a beach permit, sourcing a licensed officiant, marriage certificate logistics, hair and makeup, florals, transportation, photography, coordinating a private dining space at the Fairmont Orchid, arranging matching attire for the family, and ensuring everyone arrived at the right place at the right time.
What I handled: venue and ceremony site selection, permit and marriage certificate logistics, officiant sourcing, floral design and arrangements, hair and makeup coordination, transportation, photography, private dining coordination, family logistics, and day-of timeline.
The result was a small, intimate ceremony on the beach followed by an oceanside dinner — warm, intentional, and exactly what we envisioned. Every detail handled. Every moment ours.

Lakeside Ceremony | Vineyard Reception
Day-of Wedding Coordination | Lake Oswego
Some days are meant to last forever, make them count.🤍
Saying “I do” in the heart of Oswego Lake.
This wedding had one make-or-break moment: flipping the entire space mid-event — ceremony to full dinner setup — before guests headed off to the after-party. We made it happen!
From florals and set-up to transportation and timing, this is exactly what day-of coordination is for: so the couple stays present, while I handle the moving pieces
Living Room / Stairwell
Living Room | Stairwell Owner-managed project
This is my own home — and the same standard I hold here is the standard I bring to every client.
The living room and stairwell were original to the 90s — carpet and hardwood that never quite met, gridded windows, a dated chandelier, and a cherry railing that fought everything around it.
What changed: carpet was removed and replaced with red oak hardwood to seamlessly match the floors throughout, picture frame windows replaced the gridded originals, a minimal modern pendant replaced the light fixture, and the cherry railing was fully rebuilt — custom woodwork stained to match the floors, paired with black steel balusters.
The result is a space that feels grounded and current — warm materials, clean lines, and nothing that doesn't belong.
