People often ask why I became a designer, and I say, “it’s in my blood.” I got interested as a child because my mom loved experimenting with space, color, and styles, constantly updating our home. My maternal grandfather was an architect, and my father comes from a line of architects and engineers, so I was raised to think both creatively and analytically, express myself artistically, and trust my vision.

My artistic ability, love of nature, unique sensibility, imagination, training, and life experiences have fueled my passion for design and environmental wellness.

I love what I do and am excited to share it with the world✨

Your home should tell YOUR story and support YOUR lifestyle. Stay true to your authentic style by choosing pieces you find beautiful and features that enhance how you live—don’t follow trends just to be trendy.

Love purple? Add it throughout your home to spark joy. Play tennis and deal with muscle soreness? Consider an infrared sauna or red-light therapy for recovery. Your home should always reflect you.

It’s about slowing down to consider how you live, your needs, your personality, and what brings you joy. DM us to get the conversation started.

Neuroscientist and Nobel Prize winner, Eric Kandel said, “95% of brain activity is beyond our conscious awareness. All of our conscious thoughts and actions are unconscious first.”

When you looked at the hardware on this front door, did you actually see something more…. A face, perhaps?

Before you even realize it, you’re already seeing more than is there because of our innate cognitive ability of pattern-recognition. It’s neuroscience and one of the ways we tap into the human experience when we’re looking at designing a space for improved health and well-being. Because we design for the unconscious mind, within 3-4 seconds of walking into a space we’ve created, our design has subliminally set the tone for what we want you to emotionally feel, see, and experience.

This is what makes Wellness Design Group unique in the built-environment industry. By working with other professionals or directly with select clients, we craft spaces that are healthy and individualized for the well-being and lifestyle of the inhabitants.

One thing we know to be true… A “GREEN” home is different than a “HEALTHY” home. A GREEN home is great from the point of view of energy efficiency and lower ecological impact, but health is just a subcategory.

A HEALTHY home centers around the same parameters of clean air, water, and efficiency, but takes the notion one step further limiting exposure to harmful chemicals, radiation, and toxic byproducts associated with construction materials.

Wellness Design Group takes these two concepts even further by using Neuroaesthetics, Biophilia, and Environmental Psychology to enhance the biological uniqueness and lifestyle of each occupant. We go this extra step to ensure every home evokes a positive emotional and physical response.

This is why we are who we are - what makes us unique🌿

When we work as a consultant on a design-build project, it’s not often that after all of our inspired ideas are shared and discussions have come to a close that we get to see the final product.

However, this time we were honored to be a sounding board for our good friends to create a grounded, personally authentic, and elevated refresh of one of our favorite places.

we couldn’t be more excited and happy to see your beautiful design come to life.

We couldn’t agree more! ✨ Great design is exceptional when the people who use a space have a positive emotional response.

To be honest, I originally created Wellness Design Group as a way to help women battling burnout become healthier versions of themselves by designing a better lifestyle. However, along the way I realized that the largest daily impact on our health and the biggest supporter is found in our spaces and places where we spend the majority of our time.

The truth is that your home (or office) can either support your health or deplete it. By making smarter, more informed choices, you can have a home that is comforting, healthy, and safe - free of harmful indoor pollutants and toxic materials, aligned to support your health goals and nervous system, ethically-sourced to make a low-impact environmentally, and beautiful.

As part of my personal evolution, Wellness Design Group became a place where we work for the good of the people and the planet. No longer are you limited by just eating right and working out. Your home can support you and be the catalyst for your improved health and well-being, while supporting the health of our planet.

It’s a choice and a pivot I hope you will make too.

What a year! Toodle-oo 2025 and HELLO 2026 😉 We are extremely grateful and are really looking forward to the new year ahead.

Have a fabulous New Year!

As we approach the new year, it’s a wonderful time to clear out the old energy and create space for a new vibration.

Here’s a quick checklist to help you prepare your space for a brand new year.

✨Deep Clean & Declutter: Give your home a good clean and sweep out all the old, stagnant energy to make space for new opportunities.
✨Refresh Your Entryway: Wipe down the front door, clear clutter and dirt, and refresh landscaping to ensure it’s welcoming the new energy.
✨Open Everything Up: Opening your windows and doors will let in the fresh air and let the fresh Chi (energy) flow.
✨Rearrange for Control: By arranging key furniture (bed, sofa, desk) for a clear line of sight to your door, you’ll create a sense of control in your life.
✨Enhance with Intention: Decorate with fresh flowers/plants, mementos, and symbolic objects (like oranges for abundance) that support your goals for 2026.
✨Surround Yourself with Color: All colors have meaning and when used to decorate, will support your goals (Example: red for happiness/wealth or green for good health).

Your home is the perfect place to set your new year up for success. Need our help, send us a DM.

After the holiday hosting, everyone needs a place to snuggle up. 🏡✨ There’s nothing quite like settling down, wrapped in a soft, cozy blanket to read a good book, sipping on a warm drink, or snuggling up with someone you love on a well-appointed sofa.

Comfortable items like supportive furniture, soft textiles, and calming lighting don’t just make your space inviting—they support your mental health and well-being. Creating a home where you feel safe, relaxed, and nurtured can lower stress, boost your mood, and help you recharge for the day ahead.

Our clients are not only comfortable in their homes, but safe and satisfied. DM us if you’re ready for a little comfort and joy in your life.
