I've always been curious about the world.

Whether exploring a new destination, designing a room, discovering a remarkable restaurant, or losing myself in an art gallery, I've found that the experiences that stay with us are the ones that awaken our senses and spark our imagination.

Professionally, that curiosity has taken many forms — in design, in storytelling, in building brands — but it always comes back to the same instinct: noticing what makes a place, a room, or an evening worth remembering.

MBellished Life began as a lifestyle consulting studio. Over time, it became something more personal — a place to write about the hotels, homes, meals, and art that stay with me long after.

Today, it has become my journal of beautiful living.

Beyond the Journal

My professional journey has taken me through marketing, brand strategy, and interior design, but art has always been a constant.

For nearly three decades, I've collected South Asian art, an interest that has deepened through travel, education, and time spent in museums and galleries. I hold a certificate in Art History from Sotheby's Institute of Art, am a member of the Association of Women Art Dealers (AWAD), and participate in Stanford University's Museum Engagement Guide Program at the Cantor Arts Center and Anderson Collection.

These experiences continue to shape how I see the world, the spaces I create, and the stories I share through MBellished Life.
