My Story

I grew up on a small Mennonite farm in the rolling hills of southern Iowa.  I credit my Mennonite background for my work ethic, my love of minimalism and craftsmanship.  From a young age I was helping my great grandfather in his woodworking shop and by 16 I was working full time in construction.  

I came to Chicago in 2013 to get my degree in Interior Design at Harrington College of Design.  In 2017 I founded my Interior Design firm and later partnered with a kitchen and bath designer to grow the business.  In 2023 I founded SFS in order to focus on more passionate projects and provide a boutique feel to my clients, from the start of the process trough to the finished space.
 

My passion lies in minimalism and modern interior design with an emphasis on architecture.  I find inspiration in the small details of design, the unexpected ideas and solutions.  I love to work with artisan and craftsman that bring a special expressiveness and originality that can't be found in mass produced items.  I love to research and find sources outside of our borders.  I have a special fondness for Mexico City and it's amazing modern design community as well as its artists.  

​

When I am working with clients I want to know what truly moves them, excites them, inspires them.  My favorite clients are the ones where we can collaborate together and there is a shared passion to really create a space that elevates, defines and expresses their personality and passion.  

Let's Connect

I'm always looking for new and exciting projects and people or companies.
