Summary

I am 50 years of age. I studied Interior Design back in 2001. I lived over seas for many years, travelling and putting my Interior design skills to use. I moved back to Australia in 2014 and started importing furniture and offered interior decorating and property styling services.

I took up a position with Blink Living in January 2016 up until recently. My role was Interior Designer/Property Stylist. My role consisted of dealing with Real Estate Agents and clients on a daily basis, offering quotations and advice on how to best display the property in order to obtain the best possible outcome at the time of sale.

My strengths are selecting furniture, furnishings, lighting, art, based on each properties architectural style and floor layout and Interior style. I have successfully worked as part of a team for the past 9 years, creating beautiful homes and spaces.
