I am currently pursuing my Master’s degree in Textiles, Merchandising, and Interiors from the University of Georgia, where I also serve as a graduate research and teaching assistant. I am a LEED AP ID+C and am working towards NCIDQ certification. In 2023, I earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Interiors: Planning/Strategy/Design from the University of Kentucky, accompanied by a minor in Environmental and Sustainability Studies and a certificate in Historic Preservation. During my time there, I was also a Gaines Fellow in the Humanities. Prior to returning to graduate school, I practiced interior design at Champlin | EOP Architects in Lexington, Kentucky, primarily as a member of the healthcare design team, while also contributing to workplace and hospitality projects. My design philosophy centers on using interiors as a catalyst for positive change, and my research interests primarily revolve around social and environmental sustainability.…I am currently pursuing my Master’s degree in Textiles, Merchandising, and Interiors from the University of Georgia, where I also serve as a graduate research and teaching assistant.
