ABOUT

My passion for interior design and teaching is guided by a deeper purpose: to raise awareness of how the spaces we inhabit influence our well-being—emotionally, physically, and cognitively.

Places where we live, work, and learn should be designed with a greater focus on health, meaningful experiences, and a human-centered approach.

​

As the founder of the Holistic Interiors Design Community, I advocate integrating interior design principles with neuroscience, environmental psychology, and human-centered design to create a holistic practice that supports all dimensions of wellness. 

This perspective continues to evolve through my current Master’s studies in Neuroarchitecture, where I explore the relationship between the built environment, the brain, and human behavior.

​

I have worked in the field, focusing on providing high-quality Residential and Commercial Interior Design, for over 20 years. I work with a team that helps me work harmoniously yet diligently to achieve my client's aspirations. ​

Now, let me tell you about my background:

 

From a Fashion Designer mother and an artistic, entrepreneurial family, I was raised in the world of couture. I worked for 5 years in the high-end women's clothing industry between N.Y.C.  and Miami, and 2 years in a multinational corporation as a marketing and sales trainer delivering workshops. After this fantastic experience, I started my own interior design business. Over the years, designing, flipping, remodeling, and staging properties for sale. 

​

Since 2016, I have been implementing holistic interior design. I started with the Silver Vase office building, North America's most innovative orchid grower. There, I applied a biophilic design approach. I designed workspaces that support productivity and well-being, alongside dedicated areas for mental and physical restoration, applying a biophilic design approach.
