I am a fourth-year student at Ball State University pursuing a B.S. degree in Interior Design. Through my passion for creativity, dedication to design, and hard work ethic, I bring fresh ideas, unique perspectives, and functional solutions to every project.

As a child, I always knew that I had an innate sense for all things creative. I struggled to picture myself in a profession that did not allow me to express my creativity in a way that would better the world around me. Because of this, I began to discover different ways that I could make a difference in the world in a creative manner, and Interior Design quickly became my passion. My attentive nature and curious mind led me to take in every space I entered, and this fueled my passion to create spaces that people would enjoy occupying. I am passionate about design because of the large impact it has on the physical, mental, and spiritual well-being of all people that come from backgrounds and walks of life. I enjoy every aspect of design, and love watching a project blossom from a simple concept to a detailed 3-dimensional space. 

I strive to create interiors that challenge current design trends. Although I am extremely practical and enjoy functional design, I think it is important to continuously push the design envelope, as that is the only way to innovate and adapt how Interior Design can shape the future. I am a perfectionist and extremely detailed, but I am not afraid to make bold design decisions that set myself apart from others.
