About Me

I want to share something I believe.

If there's resistance in your home; the drawer that sticks, the linen closet that doesn't quite fit your bath sheets, the doorknob that falls off; those things pull on your energy. If you hate the closet you get dressed out of every morning, you're starting your day inside frustration.

In twelve years of working with my hands and six running She Fixed That, I've found that many people assume custom carpentry is out of reach. If your hesitation is about cost, let me ask: how many times are you going to buy something different to make that space work? How much have you already spent? In money, in time, in energy? On the almost-right version? 

I spent a lot of my early career in a corporate setting …circling back, following up, "improving areas of opportunity,”  which, despite how that sounds, gave me real gifts: structure, cost benefit analysis, problem solving, and the habit of measuring results. I mixed that with my inability to sit still, deep love of tinkering, insatiable desire to understand how things work, and a creative streak I can't ignore .. that's how She Fixed That was born.

The best builds come from collaboration. From listening. From asking questions most people don't think to ask. I want to learn your language and figure out what actually matters to you. Often what we land on is that you don't need more shelves or a bigger cabinet; you just have a giant Costco-sized bottle of olive oil that won't fit anywhere in your 1930's kitchen. 

I seek to build something you love at first sight, and then completely forget about. Because it fits. Because it brings ease. Because it's Goldilocks. (If I build something pretty that you love to look at and think about; that's a different and still a win lol)

So: show me your mess. Please don't clean up before I come over; I need to see where you kick off your shoes. I want to measure your longest dress, your bulkiest appliance, and count your hats.

You're not coming to me for a quick fix. You can get that at any Big Box Retailer. 

You're coming to me because you want to be heard and don't want almost-right.\
