Stella was born a stone’s throw from Fort Collins in a humble farmhouse hailing 900 sq. ft. in which she grew up with her two siblings and loving parents.  Her childhood was riddled with the constant creation of spaces and visions of future home projects. Needless to say, from the day she was born, a sense of space has always been of great value to her. 
 

In 2016 she graduated Cum Laude with an Associate’s Degree of Applied Science in Interior Design and 2 certificates; one in Kitchen and Bath Design, and one in Architectural Drafting from Front Range Community College. To bring it full circle, she passionately taught Residential Construction Drawing at their Larimer Campus for 6 years. Stella’s career so far has been primarily focused and specialized in custom residential design, but she has been lucky to gain experience in a broad variety of projects throughout the years.

As a designer, she aspires to create alongside others in a way that elevates peoples' sense of place, so that we may all experience a sense of belonging and connection to home. Stella especially strives for excellent client advocacy throughout the project, creativity and thoughtfulness in design, and an overall  joyful experience for all. 
 
 
While trying to make the world a more magical place, she spends her free time adventuring through board games with her partner Colin, coaching Lagree at FIT5 Studio in Fort Collins, or enjoying our beautiful state from her paddle board.
