Services

  • For shoots, campaigns, and other visual media.

    Concept development and hands-on creative support from initial idea through execution. Depending on the project, this may include wardrobe or set styling, visual research, photographer and model recommendations, prop sourcing, location sourcing, and other production details.

  • Distinctive spaces designed for living well.

    Interior styling with an emphasis on organization, flow, and systems that bring a sense of ease to the ways we live and work. I consider both how a space looks and how people move through it, developing practical solutions for storage, routines, objects, and everyday friction without sacrificing warmth or character.

  • Creative development across digital and physical touchpoints.

    Creative support for individuals and small brands refining how their work appears in the world. Services may include concept and visual development, light print and page design, presentation decks, business cards, and custom Squarespace website design with foundational SEO. I specialize in helping creatives organize and polish their offerings without flattening the depth of their work.

  • Concept development for gatherings that blur time and place.

    Creative direction and concept development for immersive parties, dinners, launches, and other gatherings. I offer ideation and feedback from the overarching idea down to the minute decisions that make an event’s concept convincing. This can include location and atmosphere, tablescapes, favors, wardrobe direction, guest experience, and the fantastical details that transform a party into a universe.

How I work

I am currently based in Chicago, and available for local and remote work. My approach is collaborative and resourceful, placing emphasis on illuminating what is distinctive about the people, places, and ideas behind each project.

With a background in sustainability, I prioritize working with what already exists before introducing something new. This includes sourcing vintage, secondhand, local, or lower-impact options where practical. I’m interested in solutions that are as functional as they are beautiful.

For digital projects and other work that doesn’t require me on-site, I work remotely with clients regardless of location. For projects beyond Chicago in which my on-site presence is needed, travel can be incorporated into the project scope.

Projects I am Drawn to

I’m eager to take on work relating to food and agriculture, sustainability, boutique hospitality, beauty, fashion, jewelry, wellness, art, antiques, furniture, and interiors. However, aligned ideas in any industry are welcome. ♡

Currently, I’m particularly interested in expanding my practice through hands-on interior styling projects.

I value projects that don’t shy away from a point of view and building relationships with room for continued collaboration.
