Why hello! My aim as a lifestyle writer is to help our community design homes that feel authentic, real, and functional with home trends and color schemes expertise. Though we all love aspirational images and celebrity houses, I love to create content that makes sense for our readers' lifestyle, needs, and interests, whether they own a home, rent an apartment, share a space with parents, or live in a cozy converted van. I am a renter myself and constantly seeking out ways to personalize my home. I'm a reformed color minimalist and recently started adding splashes of color in any way possible. When I'm not editing home content, I'm usually staring at birds through binoculars, curled up with a good book, or devouring a new flavor of ice cream.
