About

Hi! I am a licensed commercial interior designer based in Chicago. Formerly leading the design practice at CBRE Design Collective and currently the Director of Interior Architecture and Design at Ware Malcomb. I believe that every client has a unique story and interior design is about translating each of those stories into built space.

I have 20 years of experience as a NCIDQ certified, WELL, LEED, and FitWel accredited, interior designer with a focus on workplace interiors. I have designed and managed projects for innovative and well-established brands including Delta, CBRE, Mohawk Group, Bank of America, McDonalds, Humana, LinkedIn, and Amazon. I’ve led projects of all sizes from small start ups, to multi floor restacks, corporate headquarter relocations, and campus master plans.

I oversee the day-to-day operations for the Chicago interior architecture and design studio—guiding project teams, mentoring designers, and ensuring work reflects both creative excellence and strategic alignment with firm goals. I play a key role in shaping our studio culture, fostering collaboration, and driving innovation. From concept to completion, I help ensure that every project is delivered with precision, purpose, and a deep understanding of the client’s vision.

I love bubble tea, macramé, baby quilts, house plants, traditional tattoos, and pie. I’m a mom to two lunatic boys and Marvin the Bernese mountain dog.
