About Me

Over the years I’ve moved house more times than I can remember, and along the way I’ve learned how to turn almost any space into a true home—regardless of how it looks at first glance.

I truly believe a home carries its own energy. What you bring into it, and where you place things, really matters. A cluttered office can leave you feeling drained and scattered, while a clear, well-organised space with comfortable seating and everything you need within easy reach keeps you focused, calm and energised.

I’m passionate about interior design, but not just for the “pretty” factor. I love it because the right design can genuinely improve how people feel and function every day. I create practical, personalised homes that reflect who you are and support the life you actually want to live.

I’m not particularly interested in chasing the latest trends or making everything look like a showroom. What excites me is helping people get the very best out of their home Your house shouldn’t feel staged—it should be a place to unwind, laugh, make memories, and feel completely at ease. It should work with your life, not fight against it.

Your home shares every chapter of your story—the highs, the lows, the ordinary beautiful days. To me, it should feel like a natural extension of you, your personality and the way you live your life. Just as no two people are exactly alike, no two homes should be either.

If you’re someone who lives for the beach, your floors shouldn’t be wall-to-wall expensive carpet that hates sand. They should be tough, easy-to-clean surfaces with a handy spot for the surfboard and beach bags so you can grab them and go the moment the waves call. If you’re retiring and craving simplicity, your home should be low-maintenance, hazard-free, and designed so your favourite hobbies are always within reach, not buried in a cupboard. And if you’re running a busy family with everyone going in different directions, it becomes even more important to have smart storage, spaces to come together and spaces that actually work for every member of the household.

Above all, your home should tell your story. I love helping people display the things that matter—the antiques and unique pieces, the souvenirs, the photos and the pieces that spark joy or memory. I get so much satisfaction from finding creative, modern ways to weave in heirlooms, family treasures and well-loved objects instead of hiding them away just because they don’t “match” the latest aesthetic. Loved pieces deserve to be seen and celebrated.

Your home should feel unmistakably yours—and I’d love to help make that happen.
