My Portfolio
My Design Philosophy
At The STR Edit, I believe great design shouldn’t come with a luxury price tag — especially when it comes to short-term rental staging. I work with property management companies and STR owners to transform underprepared properties into guest-ready spaces that look incredible, feel welcoming, and book faster — all without overspending.
I specialize in budget-conscious short-term rental design, blending curated aesthetics with real-world functionality. My process starts with understanding the vision of each property and the goals of the owner — whether it's maximizing bookings, increasing revenue, or simply getting listed faster.
By sourcing high-quality, cost-effective furnishings — often second-hand or gently used — I create spaces that feel elevated, yet financially smart. I focus on what matters most for the guest experience: standout focal points, fully stocked kitchens, cozy linens, and thoughtful amenities that turn good reviews into great ones.
Working with me means:
-
Transparent communication
-
Clear timelines and cost breakdowns
-
A staging and setup partner who understands STR success metrics
If you're a property manager or a potential client that is struggling to get an STR across the finish line, The STR Edit helps turn “almost ready” into rental-ready and revenue-generating, with design that works as hard as you do.
