Hello!
For over 25 years, I have been helping families create beautiful, functional homes that reflect their lifestyle and personality. I enjoy the entire design process, and I've worn all the design hats from space planning to project management; from floor plans to custom furniture. I'm very hands-on... and I'm no stanger to a paintbrush, hammer or drill gun!
I enjoy helping families find their design syle- whether it be modern or traditional, or some combination of the latest trend. Good design is attainable... I have made it a goal since the beginning of my career to help people acquire beautiful, functional, spaces; large or small, extravagent or economical. In the end, the best reward is taking a space that was disfunctional and disorganized, and turn it into a flourishing thriving environment!

A Little About Me....
I knew from a very young age that I had a knack for design. As a child, I was drawing floor plans on graph paper and rearranging my bedroom furniture for fun!I founded Lasting Impressions Design (in 1998), prior to graduating from the University of Minnesota in 2001, receiving a Bachelor of Science degree in Interior Design. During this time I completed an internship with a design-build firm. This experience sealed my love of exquisite interior architecture and finishes. Working closely with a master carpenter taught me to look at interiors with a critical eye; paying close attention to every detail.
My understanding and experience of space, light, color and texture allow me to design in 3D. Not just imagining, but knowing exactly what the result will be before the project has even begun. My creativity and zest for life will inspire you while my attention to detail will guide you. You can trust the decisions that I make during each phase of the project because the finished design is already embedded in my mind.
