It started with my Grandpa.

Everette Homes is named after my grandfather, whose middle name was Everette.

After he experienced a major stroke, my family suddenly found ourselves navigating decisions we never expected to make. We wanted him to remain in the home he loved—but we weren't sure where to begin.

At the time, I was a special education teacher. We adapted his home using assistive technology I’d learned about in the classroom, collaborated with his therapy team, completed our own safety assessment, and coordinated the contractors needed to make the changes. It was overwhelming during an already overwhelming season. I kept thinking, there has to be a better resource for families like ours.

From that point on, I began looking at homes differently.

Not just as beautiful spaces–but as places that can restore independence, preserve dignity, reduce frustration, and support everyday life.

That realization became Everette Homes.

What Makes Everette Homes Different

My background isn't traditional for an interior designer—and that's exactly what makes Everette Homes different.

Before entering this space, I spent more than sixteen years working in special education, disability services, and nonprofit leadership, and earned my Certified Aging in Place Specialist (CAPS) designation. In addition to my grandfather, those experiences shaped the way I approach every project today.

My favorite part of this work isn't selecting finishes or reviewing plans. It's watching someone realize they can continue living confidently in the home they love.
