Growing up in Brazil, I was consistently in awe of the one of a kind music, culinary genius, street festivals, and pops of bright color that surrounded me. It was impossible to not be inspired by this! Brazil is a blend of beauty that I have adapted into my own career and life to this day. My surroundings influenced my eye for design and I have been chasing that passion ever since. I have my Bachelors degree in Hospitality, which I earned in Brazil while beginning my career working in event planning at a popular resort in Salvador. My career then took a sharp turn towards an unexpected twist that led me to exactly where I am today!
