I grew up torn between wanting to spend long weekends on my grandparents farm or jetting off to shop with my friends in Chicago. My love for the simple things in life and exclusive, artisan made pieces shapes the Amethyst aesthetic of "laidback luxury".

My background in home furnishings started when I was 17 working for a major home retailer. I absolutely fell in love with helping families make their homes feel special. In my early 20's I worked in real estate, new construction, marketing, and web design. In 2017, with the encouragement of my husband Andy, I decided to take the leap to open my own shop.

If you follow me online -- you know Amethyst is centered around a strong love and appreciation of rugs. It guides our design aesthetic and embodies our belief that handmade pieces give a home a soul.

Today, I live in Leawood, Kansas with my husband Andy and our three kids: Ryan (17), Vivi (9), and Miles (2)

My day-to-day is filled with finding beautiful solutions to everyday home problems -- I work with Monica to pull together a look that is tailored to your unique family and aesthetic.

The best part of my job is working with families across the US who find us because they want that Amethyst vibe!

The interior design industry is always introducing incredible designs and at Amethyst we get first access to the next great thing. It's so fun to work with clients who like to take risks and set the trends before they become mainstream.

I find great satisfaction in creating positive experiences at Amethyst. I enjoy chatting with our customers throughout the shipping process and helping with special requests.

It's always exciting to see pictures of the pieces after they arrive in the home!

I love looking for other pieces to help complete a space and collaborating with our design team to find the perfect finishing touches.

At Amethyst Home, our job is not just to sell furnishings; we want to contribute to the creation of a harmonious and aesthetically pleasing living environment.

I love to offer a seamless and personalized environment for people to shop for their dream home.

It's important to me that our clients have as many options as possible when exploring our website. Once you find something you love, you can trust your favorite pieces will be delivered safely at your doorstep.

Each order is personally strategized for the safest, quickest delivery based on the unique fragility of the furnishings and your home's location.

In my role at Amethyst Home, I find myself deeply enamored with the intricate dance between functionality and aesthetics within interior design. What I particularly appreciate about my role is the opportunity to contribute to this process by ensuring that every piece finds its place with precision and efficiency. Being a part of the team that brings these visions to life, whether it's coordinating deliveries or optimizing supply chains, fills me with a sense of pride and satisfaction. It's immensely rewarding to play a behind-the-scenes role in transforming spaces into reflections of beauty and functionality.
