Our first meeting is designed to get aligned. I’ll ask about your goals, how you live, what’s working — and what’s not. We’ll also review your project scope, timeline, and budget range.

After the consultation, I’ll prepare a proposal outlining your design fee, expected timeline, and next steps. If we move forward, the next phase includes completing your Style DNA™ and scheduling your Executive Home Audit.

Absolutely. Sourcing antiques, vintage furnishings, and one-of-a-kind statement pieces is a hallmark of my design approach. I work with trusted dealers, auctions, and markets — both domestically and abroad — to curate elements that bring depth, texture, and timelessness to a space.

For clients seeking something truly special, I often incorporate sourcing from European antique markets, estate collections, and boutique vendors known for craftsmanship and provenance. Whether it’s a sculptural console, mid-century lighting, or a weathered patina cabinet that anchors the room, I believe these pieces give a home soul — and help avoid the overly “new” or generic look.

Every item I select is intentional, grounded in your Signature Style DNA™, and designed to stand the test of time.

Yes — and there’s an important distinction between the two.

I include 3D renderings in most full-service and virtual design projects. These visuals are essential for communicating spatial layouts, proportions, and design intent — especially when we’re dealing with custom cabinetry, complex millwork, or remote collaboration. They help ensure we’re aligned visually and technically before moving into procurement or construction.

Virtual Reality (VR), on the other hand, offers an immersive, walk-through experience of your space. I offer VR selectively, in projects where the scale, investment, or complexity calls for it—such as major renovations, long-distance builds, or stakeholder-heavy decisions. It’s a powerful tool, but not always necessary.

My goal is to bring clarity to every phase of the design process. Whether through 3D visuals or VR technology, I use these tools strategically—when they serve the design, not just the novelty.

Yes — I offer a Virtual Concierge Interior Design Service for clients who are designing a vacation home, investment property, or second residence outside the Raleigh–Triangle area.

This is a full-service, remote design experience that includes everything from concept development and space planning to curated sourcing and detailed implementation plans. You'll receive floor plans, mood boards, FF&E schedules, and a comprehensive design package your contractor or local installer can follow with confidence.

If your project requires on-site involvement, I also travel to projects across the U.S. and abroad—particularly for luxury vacation homes, second properties, or larger renovations where my presence during construction or styling ensures a seamless result. Whether you're building in the mountains, furnishing a home at the beach, I can guide the entire process — from anywhere.

My full-service design fees typically begin at $30,000, depending on the size and complexity of your project. This includes concept development, space planning, sourcing, project management, and styling.

The furnishings and renovation budget is scoped separately based on your goals, timeline, and level of investment. During our initial consultation, I’ll walk you through a clear proposal so you know exactly what to expect — no surprises, no ambiguity.
