About Beauty, Collected

I’ve always been drawn to the things that give a home, and a life, character. An old house with beautiful details, a garden coming into bloom, something found that feels as though it has a story. I love the way these small things can change how a place feels.

Beauty, Collected grew out of that way of seeing. It’s a place to gather what catches my eye and to share some of what I’m discovering, creating, and learning along the way.

I live with my family in an old home in the San Francisco Bay Area and much of my creative energy seems to find its way into our house and garden. I love imagining what a space could be, bringing different elements together, and seeing it take shape. That same curiosity follows me wherever life takes me. I’m always noticing beauty along the way.
