Transforming the spaces that surround us and the ones within.

A LITTLE ABOUT ME

My mastery over the past twenty two years is the condition of the heart and how it informs our spaces. My clients would say my passion has always been not only designing beautiful spaces…but breathtaking lives.

Most recently, my cancer journey has made me curious about the health of every cell. I am not defined by my cancer but I can’t ignore how it has contributed in profound ways to the creation of a life I never expected. An expansive, lean in, transformative one.

Life. How we live it. That’s what Sanctuary Living is passionate about to the core.

In every home there dwells this marvelous potential to become a Sanctuary - not merely in renovating spaces, but through the transformation that begins in us.

Let’s work together to create the life you long for, body/mind/SOUL.

Much Love,

Criticism is the beauty killer.

THINGS I HAVEN’T SAID

Healing is not something to be chased. It is something to be proclaimed.

CAUSE FOR CELEBRATION
CAUSE FOR CELEBRATION

Exacting a life purpose from unexpected circumstance is precisely why I believe we were brought here. Not to fabricate or invent a reason for existence, but to celebrate existence for its own sake.

AGAINST THE FLOW

The extravagance is never about the gift, it is about our willingness to deeply and profoundly love.

MY DRUNK WORDS
MY DRUNK WORDS

There are headlines tucked inside our ordinary conversations, like exquisite and knowing poetry written of our lives.
