Hi, I’m Rae!

I’ve loved culture, design and creative expression for as long as I can remember—from sharing early “designs” with my parents to later drawing inspiration from my travels around the world.

Guided by an entrepreneurial spirit and a lifelong love of creativity first shaped in my hometown of Chapel Hill, my journey now comes together at The PAINTED RAM, where I create spaces and furniture that spark joy, inspire connection and make thoughtful design feel both personal and approachable.
