Frequently asked questions.

I specialize in high-impact, full-home design—from major renovations to furnishing-only projects. Some clients come to me before they even hire a contractor. Others need help finishing a space that’s never quite come together. If it affects how you live in your home, I can help you design it with intention.

Not at all. That’s what I’m here for.
Most of my clients are overwhelmed by options or second-guessing every choice. My process is designed to bring clarity from the start—so you’re never left spinning in circles.

It’s a 90-minute, high-impact design session where we focus on exactly what’s not working—and what to do next. Whether you’re planning a renovation or trying to finish a space that’s stalling out, this session gives you expert strategy and a smart plan forward.

Yes—on a case-by-case basis.
If we’re a good fit and your project doesn’t require in-person site visits, I can provide design guidance virtually. But most of my clients want high-touch support, which works best locally or in partnership with your contractor or architect.

Every project is different, but I do have a minimum level of investment. If you’re budgeting under $10K total for your project, I may not be the right fit. Most of my clients are investing between $75K and $500K in their homes—and want to make sure they’re doing it wisely.

Start with the Clarity Consultation.
It’s where we figure out what’s working, what’s not, and what needs to happen next. After that, I’ll recommend the best way we can move forward—whether that’s full-service design, a renovation strategy, or something more custom.

Yes—and I love collaborating with great ones. In fact, many of my clients bring me in before they finalize plans, because I can spot layout issues, storage gaps, or missed opportunities that others might overlook. I also help translate your vision into a plan that builders can actually execute—without costly backtracking later.

Absolutely. If you don’t need a full renovation but want your space to finally feel “done,” I offer furnishing-only design. That might include space planning, sourcing, custom pieces, or styling—whatever it takes to make the room feel complete, elevated, and personal.

I’m based in Buffalo, NY and serve clients across Western New York, including Rochester. I also take on select projects across the U.S. and in the Greater Toronto Area, especially when the scope is a good fit for my process.

Yes. That’s one of my favorite things to figure out.
Sometimes you need a bigger space—and sometimes you just need a smarter plan. I help you evaluate what’s possible in your current home and what the real return on investment might be if you stay and renovate.

Let’s find out.
I offer high-touch services for larger projects, but I also offer strategic planning sessions for homeowners who just need guidance before they move forward. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure—start with the Clarity Consultation. We’ll figure out your next best step.

Yes, and I take it seriously—because those rooms do the heavy lifting in your home.
From layout planning to cabinet design, finish selections, and space-saving solutions, I help you rethink these high-use areas so they work better, feel better, and support your day-to-day life. Whether you’re starting from scratch or remodeling an outdated space, we’ll design something that fits both your lifestyle and your taste.
