about deux

styled for the soul.

DEUX (French for “two,” pronounced like dew) honors my two sons and reflects the balance and dual nature I’m drawn to in design.

With a background in science and engineering, I’m rooted in precision and problem-solving. Styling is where I step into the other side of myself — feminine, expressive, and intuitive.

That balance is reflected through my work: minimal yet layered, structured yet fluid, polished yet effortless. My faith shapes the way I approach design — it isn’t about trends or surface appeal, but about creating atmospheres that carry intention, invite peace, and point to something greater than ourselves.

DEUX is where it all comes together: not just how a space looks, but how it makes you feel. styled for the soul.
