MEET CAROL

The Decorating Therapist®

My role as an interior designer is to listen deeply to what my clients envision, extracting those essential details about their tastes and lifestyle that create a space uniquely their own. Many of my clients already know what they like, but they lack the time to pull it all together, and that’s where I come in—bringing clarity, cohesion, and a professional eye to execute their vision effortlessly. My goal is to transform their preferences and personality into a beautifully curated home that feels personal, welcoming, and truly exceptional. I specialize in creating a lifestyle as much as a home, delivering a level of sophistication that fits seamlessly into my client’s day-to-day life. I help discerning clients access a designer’s touch without the hassle, elevating each element from furnishings to functional design details. Whether it’s blending aesthetics or planning every finishing touch, I manage all aspects so my clients can enjoy an exquisite, stylish environment tailored perfectly to their needs. By understanding and amplifying your tastes, I ensure that your home isn’t just a space—it is a reflection of the lifestyle and quality you seek to live every day. I know my job is done, when well-being is met beautifully.

What Drives My Design?

The ability to make a difference in my client’s lives through improvements in the design of their homes.

This is done through discovering their dreams, and then curating the interior design to bring all the elements together specifically for them.

I create inspiring, efficient and nurturing environments that they want and need to support a healthy foundation for their lifestyle.

Incorporating smarter materials in the decor and furnishings incorporates healthier living, so my client’s homes are not only beautiful, but perform at peak efficiency.

Great Vision

Carol has great attention to detail while staying within budget to achieve her client's overall vision for their fireplace wall. I have seen on many projects where the fireplace wall is tied into other remodeling projects for a seamless beautiful design of the entire home.

We Love Her

We bought this empty shell of a house and Carol helped us make it a home. She made suggestions based on our style of living, but never pushed. She is thoughtful, very professional and understands how to work with people. We highly recommend her to anyone looking to decorate a small area or entire house.

Wonderful to Work With!

Carol listened carefully to what my husband and I desired and thoroughly included both of our preferences in her work. Her recommendations and designs gave us exactly what we would have wanted had we been able to design it for ourselves. I'm very grateful to Carol and look forward to working with her on future projects.

Carol is a Listener

After hearing that we were most inclined toward earth tones, she transformed our master bedroom into a luxurious as well as natural enhanced space that met both our highest expectations and our budget. She is practical, fun-loving and keeps her word.
