Whether I’m styling a corner of my home, showcasing my favorite finds, or inspiring through thoughtful design tips, my goal is to help you make everyday moments extraordinary. Creating a little magic in your home is what drives me every day, and I’m thrilled to share the journey with you.
I’m passionate about sharing ideas that transform spaces into something personal and meaningful.
Owner of Haverstraw Hill & Home Decor Designer
While Haverstraw Hill officially began in 2018, its story started long before that. Growing up, I was inspired by the way my mom decorated our home, pouring love into every detail. She transformed my childhood bedroom into a magical haven, sparking a lifelong passion for design and creating spaces that feel truly special.
Those memories shaped my dream of one day crafting a home filled with warmth, beauty, and treasured moments for my own family. Today, through my work, I hope to inspire you to create nostalgic, meaningful spaces where your special memories can take root — because those moments are what matter most.

Where it all started
I’ve been married to my college sweetheart since 1993, and together we’ve raised two amazing daughters, Alyssa and Alexa. Of course, we can’t forget Bronx, our snuggly pup!
My family is my world!
...was a custom faux floral design business my mom and I ran for several years. We hosted exclusive shopping parties in our home, where customers could browse in a warm and inviting atmosphere.
TwinkleBerry Hollow...
My mom creating a magical Santa’s workshop dollhouse, complete with stockings, a cozy fireplace, and toys being made. It sparked my love for creativity and the joy of bringing warmth to every space.
A christmas memory:
I love browsing Mackenzie-Childs, Amazon, Pottery Barn, and Williams Sonoma for unique finds and home decor inspiration.
Shopping is my happy place!
It’s more than just a name—it’s a tribute to my father and the incredible legacy he left behind. He was everything to me. Though he passed away far too soon at the age of 44, his passion, creativity, and love made a lasting impact. As the owner and co-producer of Spyro-Gyra, he poured his heart into his craft. His recording studio in the town of Haverstraw holds so many cherished memories. Naming our business after that place felt like the perfect way to honor him, blending his world with mine, and keeping his spirit alive in everything we do.
