What's your favorite part about your apartment?
 "The windows. I thrive in bright and happy spaces. I always leave my drapes open — sorry neighbors!"

Do you have a quick "how-to" on hanging multiple pieces of art on one wall?
"I like to lay out all the art on the floor and arrange it until it looks balanced. It's best to start with the larger pieces, then add the medium pieces, and end with the smallest pieces. Often, it's when you start hanging the pieces that you realize you don't like your arrangement as much as you thought you did. You kind of have to be okay with making a ton of holes in the wall to do a gallery wall. But, don't worry, this is why God invented lightweight spackle. The end goal should be to have a wall of art that's balanced in terms of scale, color, and medium."

Do you measure everything before you hang the items, or do you just eye it?
"It's not a perfect science, but ultimately, putting up decor is an art form in itself, and can't be boiled down to any kind of formula. And, if it could be, I don't want to know it! That sounds super boring."
