NAVIGATE

My heartfelt connection for hospitality design began in my childhood.  From growing up in NYC to spending my summers in SC, VA and Massachusetts, I found a love for architecture, fashion, interiors, events and travel.  My design and event influence came from my family. My family believed in gathering and celebrating one another. No matter how many people were in attendance we would celebrate the occasion. Did someone say cake? We totally believed a cake was a necessary component to our festivities. These humble beginnings led me to love everything design. I continued that passion into my life and became an Interior Designer.  For over 15 years, I have enjoyed curating designs to capture the true essence of a client's vision. Becoming an event planner has allowed me to continue to share my connection.  My formal education and passion to create have allowed me to take a design vision and manifest those decisions all the way to installation. 

I had no idea at the time... 

 As I worked my way towards my passion my journey took me the way of obtaining a certificate of merchandising at the Fashion Institute of technology in NYC and a degree in Interior Design from the Art Institute of Atlanta.  I worked as an Interior Designer for 15 years.  I get to work with some amazing people. I get to create the visions and dreams of my clients who sometimes can't believe their dreams have become a reality.
