I was born in South Windsor CT. I grew up with both my parents practicing hair/cosmetology. My dad and mother opened up a Salon and Spa in CT. They both worked so hard to provide for my sister and I. Working hard is in my blood. Ever since I was young I always have loved giving and supporting people. No matter if my own family or a stranger on the street, I am a firm believer that we have the power to change people lives positively. Even if its just a small gesture. A motto I have always lived by was " treat other how you want to be treated" This passion of mine steered me into a profession of social work. I have my bachelors degree in psychology and minor in art therapy. I worked in child protective for a couple years and then transitioned to working as a social worker in healthcare.

 

The creative energy that is like a fire inside me never felt like it was getting enough air to fully burn in the way it should. That is when I started to look into other career paths. This is when I found a masters program called interior architecture. I have always been interested in the psychology of space and color. This career path was able to mold my interests of psychology and design into one. I have been working at a commercial architectural firm for the last 5 years and really enjoy how much I have learned but I still feel like my creative energy is being underserved. This sparked my interest to focus on what I truly love which is to help people visualize there design. I have been able to develop skills over the years that I can draw 3D models and use these tools to help my clients make decisions that they feel comfortable with. This creates a less stressful process because I take some of the unknown out of the equation.
