Born and raised in Southern California, Wendy’s love for interior design began at an early age, following her mom — who worked for a well-known home builder — to model home tours and open houses.

There was something about the feeling that a well-curated home conveyed that she became passionate about recreating. It wasn’t until a few years ago when she stumbled on a fourth-grade report with a final sentence that read, “I want to be an interior designer,” did she realize just how far back her love for design went.

As we all know, the path to realizing our dreams is never a straight one. Flash forward a decade after that report was written and Wendy ultimately pursued a degree in Business Marketing and Entrepreneurship. From there she entered an exciting 15-year career in public relations and marketing with clients ranging from Fortune 500 companies and celebrity-backed venues in Las Vegas to nonprofits and education.

Wendy’s professionalism, adaptability and excellent project management skills brought her tremendous success working with such a wide-range of clients; however, as the years went on, she found herself gravitating to the parts of the job that allowed her to design — branding, website design and user experience, graphic design, event design and styling photoshoots.

When her family made the move to Nashville, Tennessee, and began building their home, she knew it was time to officially pursue her passion for interior design.

Whether it’s a 1900’s renovation in Chicago, or the endless possibilities offered by a new build, Wendy’s signature style is known for making the old feel fresh again, and a new build feel like a well-curated home.
