Bio

I am a young woman who enjoys bringing people's dreams into reality, it's why I got into Interior Design. I love seeing people's inspiration photos and helping them get the house they have always dreamed of; whether they are building it from the ground up or just updating an old kitchen. Seeing the transformations of spaces and people's joy toward their new home is one of the best feelings. Interior Design isn't just about how a home looks, it is also about how one feels within the space. People spend the majority of their lives at home, if they hate how their home looks and feels that is going to impact their mental health. That is why my dream is to open up a design firm, I want to help homeowners fall in love with their homes. I want them to feel the excitement, the happiness, and the overall love of their home every time they walk in.

Bold Books Scholarship
I mostly read fiction books in my free time and I would have to say the most inspiring series I've read would be the Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas. In this series, the female lead lost everything in her life and had to persevere through extreme hardships to get where she wanted to go. She suffered from mental health, abuse, torture, as well as loss of family and friends. Even when everyone has given up on her, including herself, she found her way in life. She still wanted to better the world, no matter the cost or sacrifice. Being on this journey of healing the main character and I, as the reader, went through was phenomenal, especially for someone who struggles with mental health. I have learned from the main character to believe in myself, to stand up for those I believe in, and to always leave the world a better place than I found it.
