Raised in an artistic, real estate development family, Fresh Paint provided the perfect creative and business outlet for me. For someone who has always dreamed in color, FPAA is my passion."

My twelve year background of project management and framing expertise allows me to orchestrate everything from a small residential project to a large scale hospitality development. My approach to every project is open and relaxed. Attention to detail and working as a team are vital in producing great results.
