Fire Island has been woven into the fabric of my life for generations, with family history here dating back to the early 1920s in Ocean Beach, and later extending to Seaview and the Summer Club. My passion for design was cultivated from a young age, growing up in a family of builders, artists, environmentalists, and designers. I spent many years in New York City working in the fashion industry as a renowned model scout and manager before opening my interior design studio, Seachange Home, in the Virgin Islands. I’ve now returned to New York and am thrilled to bring the same thoughtful, collaborative design philosophy to Fire Island—blending laid-back island sensibility with a deep appreciation for character, history, and place.
Looking forward to meeting you!
