Hi, I’m Ro.

I have always had a strong tendency towards all things aesthetic. Whether it was 6-year-old me obsessively watching HGTV and building design-forward homes on the SIMS computer game or adult me who majored in Film Studies, has a background in Interior Design and is a visual artist. My sharp design eye feels like something I was born with, however, my professional experiences have fostered my talent and added more tools to my belt.

I received a Bachelors Degree in Film Studies from the University of Colorado in 2015. Studying film trained me in the areas of composition, balance, texture, framing, and lighting. I love incorporating what I learned in film school to invoke certain feelings when designing spaces.

My career began in wedding design, where I worked side by side with clients to bring their vision to life. I created table-scapes, wedding arches, and photo booth backdrops, I helped with flower arrangements, and incorporated small, personal details into design to bring the couple’s vision to life. From there, I moved into residential interior design with my position at Havenly. Havenly is an online interior design platform, and in my role, I became proficient in Adobe Creative Suite, creating concept boards and 3D renderings of my design and also mastered Havenly’s space planning software with ease.

Most recently, I moved into luxury vacation rental design with the travel club, Inspirato. My role was equal parts project manager and interior designer and entailed spec visits, creating detailed budgets, sourcing all FF&E, artwork and decor, creating a comprehensive design, traveling to project sites for multi-day installs, managing onsite teams, and successfully completing the install within an extremely short timeline. This job solidified my skills in project management including: immense attention to detail, the ability to wear many hats and juggle many projects at once, sharp problem-solving abilities, over the top preparedness and on the ground grittiness.

My love for design runs deep and each of my roles has shaped me into the organized, detail-oriented, sharp, collaborative, forward-thinking designer that I am. I look forward to seeing where my passion for design leads me next.
