Intentional lighting feels cathartic - it signals intention behind spaces - this seat is for a quiet book, this room is for slow down before bed, this table is for a hearty conversation and dinner. Lights outside your home signal an invitation; this home is lived in, this home is alive.

Can you believe it's May! Team RD marks the beginning of cooler days with family road trips, escapes up North to the beach & Mari Kondo-ing!

We recently stayed at a gorgeous airbnb by the beach and I remember staring at the (terrazzo) tiles in the bathroom, astonished by just how beautiful the concept of terrazzo is. Then I quickly snapped back into reality and reminded myself that terrazzo is done...

"... I believe that if you want something you can make it happen. Not magically but by doing everything in your power. I have never been a person who planned her future or had a five year plan, I just trust my gut and go. No excuses..."

" ... Every failure is a lesson ..."

" ... I feel so lucky to have come on board at such a pivotal time for the RD brand. I love the team, the products and the vibe...its all just coming together and I am so excited about what's next ..."

"...There’s a master plan at work – I’m just here for the ride..."

"...'Wear the outfit, you are the occasion'- it's tongue in cheek but a playful reminder to find joy and beauty everyday..."

"...I heard a great quote the other day that resonated with me. “If the door closes, find a window and climb through it” I am a strong believer in knowing there is always a solution, it is just about being open to look for another way..."

"...Be kinder and trust the process. Everything happens for a reason..."

"...Aim to find a path that motivates and excites. I’m so lucky that I wake up majority of days excited about what lays ahead. Being your own boss is also wonderful in helping juggle family and work life balance..."

"...I believe in the genius of mistakes. Although ideas are often personalized per project, sometimes when you work through them you realize they don’t belong. I trust that most ideas are born for a reason, and they may actually have been manifested for a future creation..."

"...Being a working mom has made me appreciate the time I have with my daughter even more. I make a conscious effort to be present when I'm around her. Her current age is beautiful in itself, as she notices the little things like bees on flowers and the birds. Sometimes, it's nice to slow down and appreciate the small moments, blocking out the negative and fostering good energy for the creative process.. "
