About

Have you ever thought about how your environment affects your mental health?

Have you ever thought about how you can turn your whole space into a vision board, and use your external spaces in your self development to accelerate healing, to thrive, and to create a life you love?

I am passionate about helping my clients create spaces of joy in their living spaces, work spaces, kitchens, bathrooms, their homes, that represent who they trully are. Its more than creating beautiful spaces that apeal to you and improve your mental and physical health: Its stepping into your power.

I have worked in Architecture and Interior Design for 5 years in an Architecture firm before stepping out on my own in 2018, and I am a Certified Personal Coach with specialization in Abuse Recovery, NLP, and the Trauma of Money. So with influences of Feng Shui, Hygge and Environmental Psychology, I have also combined my architecture an life coach work to provide Space Transformation Coaching, where I specialize in Decolonizing your home.

I am an International Best Selling Author of the book "l AM: How to Release the Shame of Narsasistic Abuse & Transform Financial Poverty to Wealth Beyond Numbers" where I share thoughts on joyful interior spaces.

I enjoy helping clients express who they intrinsically are in their spaces. Not what they think someone would like or copying someone's style, unless off course, it is part of who they intrinsically are. It brings me joy.

I started in Architecture, then my life turned upside down when I left my abusive relationship and I had to provide for my boys. Bouncing back after taking a break for kids is not easy, but I stayed in design because of my love for it. So I stopped looking for that perfect place to work that fit my schedule around my boys when I discovered: life isn't about finding yourself, life is about creating yourself.
I have worked a lot with people who are looking to finally have some peace in their home and truly feel safety, people looking for trauma-informed design. They all have different wants ranging from divorced and designing a place for themselves and their little daughter, to someone who is single wanting to build more community in a small home by transforming their living space so that they can host others.
Black buisness sumit. Community has a way of making you feel elevated if it feels right. Community starts at home. With the help of others I built, so now I'm helping others build. This part of me from my ancestors is well ingrained in me.
Don't get too carried away with what people say you should do. Trust your instinct.
What exactly are you looking for, and why. Think of your lived experience everyday from beginning to end, rather than what it looks like.
