I am a recent graduate from Cazenovia College, and I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree with a concentration in Interior Design. I have a love of thrifting antique and vintage pieces of furniture, and redesigning them to fit modern/transitional interiors. I have an enthusiastic, upbeat attitude, a unique sense of style, and a strong passion for interior design.
