Hey hey!
I'm Jess.

But you can think of me as your personal Nancy Drew because what I’m ridiculously good at—besides putting together the best-ever gallery walls, knowing the perfect person for custom builds, and practically having a 2nd degree in discovering unbelievable vintage finds—is asking all the right questions so I can design a home that is fun, functional, and feels like you.

A Virginia Based Interior Designer

“That’s a little too ‘out’ there, don’t ya think?”

— SOMETHING I’LL NEVER SAY

“Who gives an F what anyone else thinks.”

— SOMETHING I SAY ALL THE TIME

Since you’re about to learn a whole lot about me, let’s start by talking about you:

Well, first, if you’ve made it this far, you’re clearly a fellow freak for funky patterns, a person who agrees that beige is a nap people should refuse to take, and someone who has come to terms with the fact that your home just isn’t doing it for you anymore.

In fact, I’d bet that when you look around at all the tchotchkes you’ve collected, the abandoned attempts at accent walls and DIY projects, and that white bouclé chair you purchased in a brainwashed fog… it makes you want to tear your hair out.

(For the record, I’ve never fallen victim to a trend. Signed, the woman sitting in the white bouclé chair that she doesn’t regret purchasing at all.)

Those feelings of stress and resentment you have towards your house?

THAT’S WHERE I CAN HELP.

(Also, by the way, this is the part where I start talking about myself.)

Because I eat, sleep, and breathe to help women like you bring happiness into your home by designing spaces that are just as quirky as you are. Working together, we’ll figure out what you do love, make a plan for what to change, and get crack-a-lacking on design and construction so you can say goodbye to a house you hate and hello to a home that makes you dizzy with delight.

Outside of being an interior designer, you should know that...

I’m a mom to two kids who are honestly… just the 'sweetest' (I say this with LOTS of love), someone who does her darndest to get together with my four best friends from elementary/middle school every couple of months so we can talk way too loudly about the commune we’ll start when our husbands are dead, and a serious bookworm. Like, I read a lot a lot. (Like, 40+ books in a year.)

As for how I got here?

Fiberglass goose lamps and giant paintings of naked ladies both played a big part in why I became an interior designer.

Although, if I’m being honest, I didn’t realize until further down the road that watching my grandma with her funky furniture and my mom with her naked lady paintings would influence me later in life.

It wasn’t until after I became a stay-at-home mom, who woke up one day and realized she’d lost herself, that I decided to start something of my own. Which was actually a vintage decor shop that I later closed when I realized designing was what had always made me feel most like myself.

And that’s when, looking back, I saw the thread connecting my childhood of watching my mom and grandma exemplify how to unapologetically be themselves to me, supporting women with flying their freak flags at home.

“Jess has such great style and taste. She was able to take the vision I had in my head and execute it. Her expertise and knowledge was truly worth it.”
