Meet Mimi, Design Principal

Twenty-two years of telling stories through design.

My creative career began 22 years ago as a florist, designing floral stories for movie premieres and high-profile events. A natural progression led to luxury weddings with everything from florals, to tablescapes to planning and coordination. I set out to create environments that were memorable and experiential.

My love for interiors flourished while telling visual stories and creating beautiful environments through my clients’ eyes. I understood their vision and I felt joy and excitement bringing their stories to life with every detail. My design concepts became more about spatial planning and the architectural elements surrounding the events and how I could marry nature and interior design together. It was a pivotal time in my life, and I decided to earn a degree in interior design at 35 years old, married with two young children. Thankfully I had a ton of support from my family, and I was able to reach for the stars. It was truly the best time of my life and it was the best decision I’ve ever made!

I have been incredibly fortunate to learn from and work alongside well-appointed designers, Campion Platt and Michael Aiduss, managing and designing luxury residential projects for clients in New Jersey, New York, The Hamptons, and Palm Beach. Interior design is my special place to tell unique stories for each of my clients. I’ve been given a gift! I have the privilege of creating beautiful environments that are a true expression of what my clients can only imagine. I do what I love, while giving back. It is truly gratifying.
