Hello! Tell us a bit about yourself

I’m a content writer with an interior design background.

I use my experience to write design-related content for architects, interior designers, product manufacturers, and design publications.

In addition to providing writing services, I run Rosstopia.com, a website focused on home office productivity and design.

Prior to writing, I worked as an interior designer and spent many years working in home furnishings with top-tier brands and high-profile clientele.

I also worked as a marketing manager for a top-tier, mid-century-styled furniture brand in Los Angeles.

I continue to use my interior design and product design experience to help others design their home offices.
