Meet Ann.

As a mom to two busy and wild boys, I work part time to indulge my creativity and to show my family that having and doing it all is not easy, but if you love something and work hard, you will find happiness.


I am a designer, artist, mom, wife, short order home cook, chauffeur, and mother of dachshunds. I used to believe that I had to fit into a box—I had to be a designer or an artist, but I could not be both. There have been so many uncertainties in the last couple of years, and I think that the ability to change, evolve, push boundaries, and grow has given me a new perspective on all aspects of my life.

Born and raised in the suburbs of Chicago, I never thought I would leave the Windy City. I have come to embrace the south and its warmer temperatures since moving to Tennessee in 2014. I have a Bachelor's degree in Liberal Arts from Purdue University, an Associates Degree in Interior Design from Harrington College of Design, and I am a self-taught artist.

When I am not playing cars, dinosaurs, or making the ten thousandth snack of the day, I am working on projects of all shapes and sizes. I am speaking with clients and artists to gather information in order to create renderings, images, and mock ups to show how design can change how you feel about your home. If I have any time left over, you can find me picking through a local antique shop or just hanging out with my family.

 

If you want to update your space, add special finishing touches, or if you simply want to understand what type of budget you need for your project, I’d love to hear from you.
