Velvet Butterfly Designs is the natural evolution of a life spent celebrating personal style and fashion. I grew up in a home where style, color, and interior and exterior spatial design and relationships influenced almost every thought and action.

Aesthetics and practicality were never separate subjects. If it was worth doing, it was worth doing beautifully as well as efficiently.

No doubt my boundless creativity owes a lot to my mother, a graphic designer, brilliant inventor and all-around genius. Whether sewing new outfits or redecorating on a whim, her home—my home—was a place of endless ideas for new expression.

Surrounded by fabrics and fashion mags, paint, wallpaper, tools and lumber, we always had fun playing with our "look" and our environment, creatively solving every problem that presented itself.

The solutions had to say "me". And they had to be fun! Otherwise, what's the point? Life's just too short to be gloomy!

One thing leads to another . . .

This extraordinary formative experience led to requests for fashion and interiors advice from friends and family. I had a knack for perceiving what worked, and also meant something intensely personal for each person.

This later translated into nearly a decade of creating fast, cost-effective and visually exciting solutions in set dressing for films, music videos and television commercials—where time is money, and "the look" rules!

During this period, I perfected all the tricks of the trade, the miraculous transformation of the commonplace into the remarkable.

Now my flair for color, fashion, spatial design and fiscal efficiency has found its ultimate expression in Velvet Butterfly Designs.

Whether you want to change your look, your space, or just get a new "attitude" that says something about yourself, I can probably help.
