the intersection of design & adventure
I’ve always been the go-to-gal for planning trips, mapping out the cafés & researching where the locals go, rearranging mood boards, and staying up late tweaking the photos & copy “just one more time.”
What started as a love for beautiful places & a deep appreciation for design in the orDinary, slowly turned into something more.
"I didn’t realize it then,
but I was already building the foundation for the work I do now."
So now, that mix of curiosity, creativity, and a slight obsession with aesthetics has grown into Illuminate - a studio where travel, storytelling, and design all live under one roof.

About Me
you’ll usually find me exploring a new neighborhood restaurant, playing tennis, enjoying a slow morning with a playlist on, or romanticizing an ordinary Tuesday like it’s a scene from a rom-com.
Two things can be true about me, I’m equal parts homebody and risk-taker, so you bet I will book the flight (hello economy) & jet-set to a new city, preferably oceanside, or be content sipping rose on a patio with friends.
and I hope what you see inspires you like it inspires me - there is no gatekeeping of the good stuff at this studio!
