About 

Hi there. My name is Leah. With the use of my own personal experience and unique design method, I hope to assist my clients throughout design process by helping to make their dreams a reality.

A definition of me in one sentence: "Ambitious dreamer who loves a good narrative."

I hail from a small town in west-central Nebraska. One could say my upbringing was reminiscent of Laura Ingalls-Wilder: complete with a one-room schoolhouse, wide-open prairie, and good old-fashioned work ethic.

My passion is in architecture and the impact the built environment can have on the happiness of people. I love thinking of projects in all of their stages and I look forward to making a difference, one project at a time.
