dwellbetter

Living within a beautifully designed or styled environment that feels comfortable helps us think, rest, and thrive. I call this dwellbetter. It’s a mindset that applies to our homes, offices, cars, gardens — anywhere we spend time and have the opportunity to be more intentional with our spaces. It’s a mix of organization, styling, and the thoughtful selection of objects that support how we want to live.

Dwellbetter helps people take a closer look at their living spaces and make small, intentional changes that create calm and clarity. It’s about living in a way that feels organized — whatever that means to you. When our spaces are free from clutter and unnecessary stuff, we make room for creativity, focus, and more intentional living.

Home, Office or Art Studio 
Organization

Let’s get your space working for you! 

I work with individuals to jump-start home, office, or art studio organization by clarifying goals, setting priorities, and figuring out what truly makes sense for a space.

With a supportive, judgment-free approach, I hope to turn overwhelming projects into doable steps using a simple purge, merge & splurge method—so the space finally works with you, not against.

Interior or Exterior Design Advisor

Drawing on years in the home furnishings world, I work with

clients to make thoughtful, clever

and confident design decisions

that balance beauty, function,

and practicality.

My goal: to share what I’ve

learned — the wins and the

mistakes — so you can skip the trial and error, plan for the long run, and make every inch of your home

work beautifully for you.

Staging Strategy
Planner

Getting your home market-ready doesn’t have to mean starting

from scratch. I help homeowners prepare their properties, maximizing appeal with strategic staging

and thoughtful design.

Using existing furnishings and a careful editing process, I provide clear, practical recommendations, and, when needed, suggest

minimal additions like linens or accessories to create a polished, market-ready space.

fabri-cater

fabri-cater (v.) — Dreaming up and handcrafting décor + props for any wild creative vision — from giant garden creatures to social-media-bait backdrops to absurdly extra pet home accessories that make people giggle.  Working solo, or alongside florists and event pros, the goal is always the same: create clever, imaginative moments that hit, delight, and stick in people’s brains long after the event ends.

Consulting

Drawing on years of experience planning everything from intimate catered meetings and gatherings to 200+ person galas with entertainment, auctions, and presentations, I bring a thoughtful, hands-on approach to event management. As a consultant specializing in cultural tourism, I help neighborhoods, cities, regions, and cultural institutions build visibility and awareness for their museums, performing arts, and heritage assets—creating meaningful connections between people, place, and culture.

About

Hi, I'm Lisa!

After years in a successful career in cultural tourism marketing, I’ve built a lifestyle allowing me to focus on my passion for helping others dwell better.  I have experience in residential interiors, event production, and creating marketing campaigns showcasing artists and cultural institutions. I show up with equal parts creativity, organization, and efficiency—think of me as a one-person upgrade button. I’ll tackle your space, tame the chaos in your home or yard, and leave things looking better, feeling calmer, and way less stressful.
