About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Eat, sleep and breathe Interior Design!

ABOUT ME

I am freethinking, freestyling, neva freeloading, love my friends and my neighbors, i love to brainstorm, transform, go out for a drink, love to bike and explore, check out and learn about architecture, history, culture, music, design, etc..

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that everyone should create their own religion based on what makes them happy. Then, rather than converting others, live life to the fullest, learning from everyone you meet. I try to shake things up as often as possible, get out of my comfort zone, and into the moment.
