My story might sound a bit like yours...

Have you ever felt that one part of your life was out of alignment with the rest? Maybe you’ve had a desire to give back more, or maybe (since you’re here) your home doesn’t match your lifestyle. For me, it was my career. 

At the time, I was working in global enterprise sales. I had followed the traditional path: a Business degree from Indiana University and years working my way up the ladder. But something didn’t feel right. With each corporate promotion, my lifelong dream of becoming an interior designer became louder and louder.






Years later, every aspect of my life has come into focus. The business side and the creative. The personal and the professional. My love of design and my passion for service. Now, I can’t wait to help you experience the life-affirming benefits of a home that’s aligned with what you love most.

One day, I stumbled across the Hebrew word, yirah. Yirah describes that gut-deep sense of excitement or anticipation that someone feels when stepping into the unknown and aligning with their most authentic self. Oh, I was feeling it! I took the leap and started KP Home.
