I am the founder, principal interior designer, and artist behind Shadow + Fern Studio, based in the Portland, OR metro area. While I primarily work locally, I’m always excited to travel for the right project—whether it’s nearby or across the country, I’m ready to take on projects that inspire me.

With a Bachelor of Science in Interior Design and over 10 years of experience—gaining invaluable mentorship along the way—I specialize in large, new construction projects, guiding my clients from the very first design stages before breaking ground through to move-in day. My attention to detail, combined with a deep passion for design, ensures that I create thoughtful, functional, and beautiful interiors that are tailored to fit your needs and lifestyle. As the founder of Shadow + Fern, I bring my refined process and expertise to every project, helping turn your vision into a reality that elevates your everyday life.

At the heart of my design philosophy is a commitment to authentic interiors—spaces that are not only beautiful but also elevate your daily experience. I believe that great design is about more than just aesthetics; it’s about solving real problems, creating environments that support comfort and well-being, and enhancing the way you live. Every project is an opportunity to blend creativity, functionality, and personal style, crafting timeless spaces that are uniquely yours.

Transparency and honesty are core values in both my personal and professional lives. I’m committed to making the design process as clear and enjoyable as possible. I’m always happy to explain my approach and educate my clients where necessary, so you feel confident, informed, and empowered throughout the entire journey. If you’re hiring me, you already trust my skills—I’m here to ensure you understand every step of the process and that the experience is as smooth and rewarding as the end result.

I treat every project like a puzzle, where the pieces are your needs, your style, good design, and smart solutions. This approach ensures that every design is thoughtfully tailored to fit your vision and lifestyle, creating a space that truly works for you.
