What do you love most about your work:

Nell

I love changing the way people feel about their homes. It’s incredibly empowering to love the space you live in, and I love being a part of that journey. 

R&S

Best piece of advice you can give to working mothers:

Nell

The best piece of advice I have for mothers (working or otherwise) is: trust yourself. For some reason, being a mother makes you a magnet for other peoples’ opinions—everyone thinks they know what’s best for you—but only one opinion matters, and that’s yours!
