I was born and raised in Rowlett, Texas! After graduating from high school I moved across the state to Lubbock, Texas where I got my Bachelors in Interior Design and my minor in Architecture from Texas Tech University (Wreck 'Em). During school I worked for a new construction drafting company that sparked my love for space planning and working with clients to create the home of their dreams. After having way too much fun at school, I moved back to Dallas and started my career in the commercial design industry in an attempt to "diversify my portfolio"...After a couple years exploring the commercial side I decided to go back to my roots and landed here at 6th Ave!
