I’ll be the first to say that transitions are often trying — intellectually, emotionally, and physically. Life is complicated enough. Throw in a major change, and the additional uncertainties can make everything feel overwhelming. Our home is the space that should give us joy and rejuvenation, a source of comfort from everything else. When that’s in a state of flux, hold on to your hat!

Our family has moved more times than I’d like to count, and our adult children continue their moves across the country and in England. For years, I have dedicated myself to make each and everyone’s transition to a new space as seamless and beautiful as possible. As I see it, the efficiency and style elements are essential to maintain positive sources of momentum and personal well-being. I started PREDESIGN to offer the same tools I have used to help others design and streamline their moves around the US and abroad.

My strongest instincts have always been to help others, create beauty, and improve processes. A lifelong artist and entrepreneur, I see the world through eyes of understanding others and assisting their goals of aesthetic expression. Following graduation from the University of Pennsylvania, I traveled around the world and married my husband, Roland. We lived in Paris and Geneva for seven years during which time I imported an American technology that produced handwritten-quality calligraphy. Projects ranged from birth announcements, to lavish wedding suites, and private event materials for the World Economic Forum and Chase Manhattan Private Bank. After raising our children in the Philadelphia suburbs and countless creative endeavors for fundraising and development at their schools, I worked for years with wonderful clients as a portrait and event photographer. I have done commissioned paintings and adore furthering my art history and philosophy education with classes at the Barnes Foundation.

PREDESIGN encapsulates my talents and desire to help others understand the path to their beautiful home is easier if we do it together.

  • Reach out via this site’s Contact page. You will receive a short questionnaire to share your plans and preferences so that our first complimentary meeting is focused on exploring the specifics of your needs.

  • We will send you a helpful measuring guide to make the task easier and thorough for our planning requirements. A tried and true, sturdy metal tape measure is the most reliable tool for the basis of our rendering. When those irl measurements are not possible to take, interior blue prints and floor plans are the next best thing. We can discuss options.

    Our 3D scale renderings can only be as accurate as the measurements we are provided.

  • Something far better will be created for us to keep all of our communication, files, and renderings private and organized. A unique client portal will house all of your customized information and plans. No lost emails or missed calls to worry about.
