About Me

I'm a licensed psychologist (Ph.D.) with a specialty in design

psychology. After years practicing clinical/counseling psychology, I

felt the pull towards a more creative career. Now I blend the best of

both worlds with my design psychology consultation service, helping

clients create emotionally supportive spaces. I've worked as a freelance

home tour photographer and writer; and love writing about homes and the

people who create them.
