Read a little more about who she is in our Q&A with her below!

1. What attracted you to iHomeRegistry?

What immediately attracted me to iHomeRegistry was the content of the Instagram page! I was so drawn to it, and then after seeing what the software can do I was so impressed. Being able to render, design, and organize all in one was genius and I knew from there I wanted to be apart of it!

1. How did you get to where you are today?

A lot of passion, love and encouragement from my family! They are always pushing me to follow what I love and pursue my dreams. Being able to be a mom, wife, and do something that makes me happy is a dream come true! I always want to stay true to myself, be a good person, work hard and go after what you want in life!

1. What is the best piece of advice you’ve received?

I think the best piece of advice I have received would be never stop being curious, always ask questions, explore the unknown and try new things. Life is all about new discoveries, and never giving up on your dreams. It doesn’t help to be stuck, always search for something bigger and better. Life is what you make of it, so put a smile on and go after your life!

1. Who did you look up to as a young woman and why?

My mom! She has always been my inspiration in life. She exceeded every expectation growing up, as a mom, wife, friend, and being an incredibly strong woman. She has taught me to try new things, and chase after your life. If there is something you want in life, it’s up to you to go after it! She has shown me it is possible to put your family first but also still do what you love.

1. What is your favorite room in your home and why?

My kitchen and coffee bar! The kitchen is the heart of our home, we spend a lot of time cooking and at the end of the day gathering around the table to have dinner together. I also have a very favorite spot in my kitchen where my coffee bar is. In our kitchen my husband and I DIY’d a pallet wall and turned it into my coffee bar. I have a table set up with all my favorite mugs and coffee essentials, because who doesn’t need a good cup of coffee to get your day started!

1. Fun/interesting fact about yourself?

I’m a California girl who ended up in the Midwest trading sandy beaches for the lake life!
