INTERIORS

My Story

Perfect presentation has always been part of my life, whether I was on stage, in front of a camera, or behind the scenes bringing creative work to life.
I was Miss World Australia, a television and radio presenter, head of the Fashion Styling and Fashion Journalism departments at one of Australia’s largest fashion colleges, and worked as the fashion editor for an international online magazine. So I understand how powerful presentation can be, not just how things look, but how they feel, how they tell a story, and how people connect to them.
That understanding naturally led me to interiors. After buying my first home, I completely fell in love with the process of creating spaces , not for show, but for real life. I went on to study interior design and have since worked across residential and commercial projects, always drawn to the mix of beauty and functionality that great spaces require.
While I still take on a small number of interior design clients each year, I’m highly selective. I give everything to the projects I take on, and they have to feel aligned on every level, creatively, personally, and practically.
Today, my main focus, and my true passion, is property staging. It’s fast-paced, intuitive, and endlessly rewarding. I’ve built an exceptional team around me and I’m still involved in every single project. Every layout, every item, every final touch runs through me. It’s a designer-level experience, at every stage.
I live Toowoomba, a place I absolutely love. The homes here have so much character, charm, and history, and it’s a joy to help bring them to life through thoughtful staging. I also offer virtual consultations for clients beyond the region, supporting both design and staging projects wherever the fit is right.
I’m a designer, a mother, and someone who cares deeply about how people feel in the spaces they live. For me, this work is personal, and that’s exactly how I approach it.
