Questions/Topics:

How did you get started in the decorating?

What's the difference Interior Design and Interior Decorating?

What's the process for engaging with you?

How do you deal with difficult clients? Have you ever had to fire a client?

Tell us about the pretty rocks (crystals) in many of your reveal pictures. 

What if I don't have a big budget? If I only have $500 can you still help me?

How is cost determined?
 

Guest Quotes:

I ask a lot of personal questions [of the clients] because every room has energy in it. I ask, "How do you want to feel in this space"?

I ask questions to dig into who you really are then I find the core pieces that an speak your love language.

Every time I put a crystal in someone's home, they love the feeling. It's my way of reminding them that there is peace within their home.

I love to put at least one DYI item within every client's home to give it that personal touch. I'm really big on it. That's what I believe really set me apart from other interior decorators.

Patience has to be one of the main things with getting your space together. You don't want to rush buying furniture and then not be completely invested in it by the end. That's a common mistake. Don't rush!

When I bought my current house I hired an interior decorator to help me.... It was the best money I'd spent. When I tell you I never ever regretted any of the money I spent on my decorator at all... I didn't.
