about
Orchard & Olive Design Studio was born from a lifelong love of interior design and the transformative power of space. From an early age, I found inspiration in colors, textures, textiles, architecture, and the way a well-designed home could evoke both beauty and belonging. That passion led me to pursue formal studies in architecture and interior design at UCLA while gaining hands-on experience working at a leading design and build firm.
With my experience in the industry, I bring a deep understanding of materials, craftsmanship, and the balance between aesthetics and functionality. My approach is rooted in creating spaces that feel like a sanctuary—thoughtfully curated, rich in detail, and a true reflection of the people who inhabit them.
At Orchard & Olive, I believe that great design is not just about how a space looks, but how it feels. Whether it’s a full-scale re-design or a carefully curated refresh, every project is an opportunity to blend artistry with practicality, bringing timeless elegance, warmth, and soul to every home. Let’s create something beautiful together.
