I am a wife and mother of one, living and working along the East Coast, where much of my life is shaped by both professional discipline and creative curiosity. I hold an MBA and work in finance, a background that has deeply influenced how I think about structure, discernment, and the quiet power of intention, both in work and in daily life.
Alongside this corporate world, I am drawn to the arts in all their forms. I love philosophy and poetry, music and opera, classic film, and the enduring rituals of etiquette and dress. I sing, I write, I photograph, and I pay close attention, to how a room is arranged, how a meal is prepared, how a conversation unfolds. I believe these details are not ornamental, but foundational to a well-lived life.
Lived Artfully exists at the intersection of these worlds: the domestic and the professional, the intellectual and the aesthetic, the practical and the poetic. Here, I explore home, garden, and table; personal style and presence; travel and observation; and classical conversations that elevate the everyday. My work is rooted in the belief that beauty, culture, and thought are not separate from modern life, but essential to it.
This journal is not about perfection or performance. It is about cultivation of taste, of thought, of presence, and about finding meaning in the ordinary rhythms of motherhood, work, and creative life.
