Creative Curator for intentional, livable spaces

I create intentional, cohesive and affordable spaces that enhance everyday life and well-being. From simple consults to one-and-done services and seasonal scaping, I collaborate with you to understand your needs, source unique pieces, and shape spaces that feel personal, flexible and elevated—whether it’s your home, a short-term rental, or a woodland retreat like my Superhost-listed SunStache River Camp.

Our old logo looked like it was made in 1994 — because it was. The redesign gave us a visual identity that finally matches the quality of our services. A cleaned polish to the OG!

I told Ellis Design Lab the budget was non-negotiable. She didn't blink — just got creative. Thrifted antiques, DIY wallpaper accent walls, locally sourced art. The place now has a soul. Guests ask if we'll sell the furniture. That's how you know it worked.

One consultation. That's genuinely all it took. Sara walked the space, listened to my imput, and gave me an actionable plan. If you've been on the fence about whether a single session is 'enough' — it absolutely can be.

The quality speaks for itself. We came in with high expectations and left even more impressed. Warm, attentive, and truly dedicated to getting it right — we couldn't be happier."
