    Why I am moving...

Transcript

Everyone has been asking why I'm moving, and I have some very exciting news to share with you guys. I just bought my first home. You guys have no idea how excited I am to start creating and designing my own home. Home. I first started this journey of creating interior design content three years ago for my first apartment in LA, and today, I'm officially a homeowner. This all feels so surreal. Thank you to all of you who have followed me and supported me from the beginning, and to those of you who have joined me along the way. Before I go, I wanna give you guys a sneak peek of my first home, and give you a glimpse of what's to come.
