I’m a lead interior designer and creative director with over 10 years of experience across luxury residential, hospitality, retail, exhibition, and experiential design. My work has ranged from architecturally driven private residences and hospitality concepts to global retail environments, immersive brand experiences, exhibitions, and hospitality development proposals selected through city-led processes. 𝐁𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝: My background combines formal design education in New York at Parsons and Pratt Institute with five years living and working in Copenhagen as a lead designer for global brands including Bang & Olufsen and Pandora Jewelry and an additional five years as a lead designer at my own practice. Notable projects have included annual exhibitions for Milan Design Week and the Venice Biennale, global retail concept development, and architecturally driven interiors across the U.S. and internationally. That experience continues to shape my approach today. My work tends to balance refined simplicity, strong atmosphere, honest materials, and a site-sensitive modernism that feels both elevated and deeply livable. That experience continues to shape my approach today. My work tends to balance refined simplicity, strong atmosphere, honest materials, and a site-sensitive modernism that feels both elevated and deeply livable. 𝐀𝐩𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐡: I believe the strongest spaces are shaped not just by aesthetics, but by how people actually live within them. My process is highly informed by lifestyle, architecture, functionality, and long-term use, resulting in spaces that feel thoughtful, cohesive, and deeply personal rather than simply visually styled. While compelling visuals are an important part of the process, I approach projects with a strong understanding of how materials, layouts, detailing, lighting, and spatial decisions ultimately translate into real-world construction and daily experience.
