More LessBeginnings…
As a child, I liked to re-decorate my bedroom as much as Mom allowed – including taping Davy Jones (remember the “Monkees”?) photos to anything that they would stick to. I loved visiting my friend’s homes because it meant I got to see their bedrooms. I didn’t know it then, but my interest in color and design would lead to my passion.
Getting there…
My path to Balanced Living started when I was an interior design student at UT in the early 80’s. A few twists and turns later, design gave way to a career as a paralegal. If it were not for finding a book about the Chinese art of Feng Shui during my lunch hour – I might still be buried in law books. As it turns out - that book brought me back to design and literally changed my life.
I left law for five years of intensive Feng Shui classes in Ontario and Seattle – studying with renowned Feng Shui master Joseph Yu. After becoming certified as an International Feng Shui Consultant, I opened up an interior design practice and the business took off. Attracting lots of work from realtors who hired me to stage houses, it wasn’t long before I was interested in expanding my practice to include real estate.
Growing…
I launched Balanced Living Properties in 2005, creating a Real Estate Brokerage that goes beyond the traditional model. With a focus on bringing a more harmonious experience to buying and selling property, I continue to find inspiration from helping clients and continue to look for ways to improve our services.
Credentials…
Certified Advanced Feng Shui practitioner
Feng Shui is a sophisticated art and science. It’s wise to find out the extent of a person’s training before hiring him or her. Some people call themselves “Feng Shui Consultants” after taking a weekend or on-line course in Feng Shui. I studied traditional Feng Shui for over five years and attained the title of Senior Feng Shui consultant from the Feng Shui Research Center in Ontario, Canada. I am one of three consultants in Austin that have earned this title. For more information, see www.astro-fengshui.com
