My goal is simple - I'm here to guide you in falling in love with the place you call home.
Following nearly a decade of honing my craft in prestigious Minneapolis-based interior design firms, I embarked on a new chapter by establishing my namesake studio in 2023. Paying tribute to my most profound influence, my mom Kristi, the studio also carries her name with reverence and gratitude.
My deep-seated connection to design and construction began at a young age, as I watched my parents build their forever home in small town Iowa. My unwavering commitment to organization is evident in my meticulously crafted specification schedules, while my relentless curiosity drives me to explore the components that contribute to crafting one-of-a-kind designs.
My world revolves around my incredible husband, Shawn, our four-legged friends, Kya & Miley, and the shared laughter and love of our families. When I’m not dreaming up my next home project, you’ll find me chasing endorphins or nose deep in a good book.
