About one year ago my husband and I invested and bought a
15,000 sq ft apartment in Chelsea. It was a raw
space yet modern and convenient to our boats that are docked in Chelsea Piers.
Growing up poor I never imagined that I would have an apartment this
beautiful, enormous, that my office would be overlooking the statue
of liberty or that I would be living in one of the trendiest destinations in New York
City, the meatpacking district.
You ever hear the expression “The future belongs to those
who believe in the beauty of their dreams” by Eleanor Roosevelt? As a native New Yorker (I’m originally from Queens) I always
envisioned of having a place in New York City, it was always a dream of mine to
live as a downtown chic girl just like you see in the movies, but never in my
mind did I think I would ever have the luxury of designing and decorating my
own place in Manhattan.
I want to inspire you all to dream and dream big!!! If you
visualize it will come, if you work hard you will get rewarded, if you believe
in yourself just do it !!! Some of my friends and colleagues thought I was a
little crazy attempting to decorate and design this beautiful space without the
help of an experienced decorator or designer not to mention it was done a
little under 6 months. But at the end of the day after many months of hard
work, no sleep, and driving myself crazy it is finally complete. Always believe
in yourself and if you really want something badly you can make it happen.
