I've had a handful of my very first clients tell me they are retiring now and it got me to reflecting on my journey in staging which started 20 years ago! In this video post, I'm going to show you how I got started, my first steps and my hilarious portfolio.
I have so much gratitude for the people I've met, the adventure it's been and I look forward to what's next for our industry.
