P. Gracias por tomarse el tiempo de sentarse con nosotros para compartir su historia con nuestros lectores. ¿Puede comenzar compartiendo un poco sobre usted y su empresa?
Yes, thanks for having me. I have been in the Real Estate Staging Industry since 2007. I live in Metro-Atlanta and found my ideal client to be Investors. In 2018, approaching Superbowl LIII in Atlanta, I started helping investors prepare their properties for STR. I fell in love with STR design. In 2022, I shut down my staging business and started Vacation Rental in a Box and doing STR designing full-time.
P. Todos tienen una historia sobre cómo comenzaron, ¿cuál fue la inspiración o el catalizador para que usted comenzara su negocio?
I mentioned the Superbowl, which was the original catalyst, but when the pandemic hit, I feel in love with staying home with my kids and knew in my gut that I needed to make a shift so that I could have more quality of life. I have learned most changes occur because life kind of pushes you that way. So, in 2021, I had a few health issues and asked myself what was important to me. I loved being home and I loved traveling. The answer changed my mindset from staging to design and now I design STRs all over the country.
P. ¿Qué servicios ofrecen? ¿Y por qué eligió ofrecer esos servicios en particular?
I offer STR Design, mostly vacant properties but also offer refreshing of existing properties.
I also teach other designers and stagers how to do what I do.
P. ¿Alguna vez tuvo un proyecto o cliente en el que todo iba mal o el proyecto era un desafío? ¿Puede compartir sobre ese momento y cómo encontró una solución o superó el desafío?
With design, everything is about logistics and making sure we have the right product in a realistic timeframe.

P. Dirigir un negocio no siempre es fácil. ¿Qué ha aprendido sobre usted y su negocio desde que lanzó su empresa?
To keep the vacation mindset. Allowing myself to enjoy quality of life so that my creativity isn't compromised. This includes staying in short term rentals as well when traveling.
P. Todos hemos tenido un empleado o un cliente que hace que lo que estamos haciendo valga la pena. ¿Puede compartir con nosotros una historia sobre un empleado, proveedor o cliente que realmente lo haya impactado y tocado su corazón?
Many of my clients are in the medical field, nurses, doctors, pharmacists. Watching them grow and seeing their properties take off has been incredible to experience.
P. Si pudiera retroceder en el tiempo y darse algunos consejos sobre cómo administrar o hacer crecer su negocio, ¿qué consejo se daría a sí mismo?
Get a business coach and an accountant straight away.
P. Si un cliente potencial estuviera leyendo este artículo en este momento, ¿qué le diría sobre usted, su equipo o su negocio que lo convencería de elegir su empresa?
Our goal is to hone in the right demographic so we can design a space that will make you the most money in the long term.
P. ¿Cuál es un hecho sobre usted o su negocio que la mayoría de la gente podría no saber?
That I own three short-term rentals properties myself in Broken Bow, OK, Park City, UT and Sedona, AZ through an investment group collaboration. And I also want to own a tiny home and start a Southern Irish Restaurant in Plymouth, MA.
P. ¿Hacia dónde ve su negocio en los próximos 5 o 10 años?
Taking off, we are growing so rapidly already. I would like to have an on-demand teaching platform. I am currently developing one on Kajabi.
