Formerly Luxury Ranch Interior Design, I am excited to announce I recently debuted my new identity, The Cowgirl Designer at Taylor Sheridan’s THE RUN FOR A MILLION COMPETITON at The Southpoint Hotel & Arena in Las Vegas in August, 2025! 

Here’s a little about my long journey to get there…

In 2008, at the peak of the greatest years of my interior design career, the market crashed…hard. Instantly, even the wealthiest of clients stopped hiring interior designers for fear of looking pretentious in such a bleak time. After 15 years of designing all genres of homes, this unfortunate reality gave me the opportunity to become a unicorn in the sea of interior designers. The idea of a niche business in any economy was a journey to uncharted territory, but the crazy Cowgirl/Artist in me saw it as a chance to meld my love of interior design with my rodeo, reining and ranch way of life. I started designing furnishings for my own home, illustrating stories of my life growing up on a 5th generation ranch. In 2013 I debuted my ‘art’ furnishings, lighting and accessories at the NFR sponsored Cowboy Christmas Convention in Las Vegas, followed by exhibitions at The Dallas Safari Conventions and The Del Mar National Horse Show. While my Contemporary Western aesthetic proved ahead of its time, I never stopped believing they would never be appreciated. Fast forward to 2025 and the validation finally came. These last 10 years I worked harder than ever before, but I have loved every minute of it because I am always around ‘My People’.

Thank you for visiting my new website. The interiors are as diverse as each client, and the Art Furnishings are intended to inspire and delight the viewer and help them to imagine a Contemporary Western world. No one should EVER find their style in a magazine. Discovery is the fun part. Let me be your guide…

Let’s Ride!
