about amy
I’ve always been a “creative” – it’s in my family roots. I grew up eco-conscious before it was chic to be green. My parents built our house, using reclaimed products, so I was immersed in the “home building experience” by 2nd grade, though not always willfully, as me mum was determined I would be a well-rounded gal! It was around 6th grade that I actually took interest in styling my room and being organized.
I’ve also always been into love. I’m in love with love. If I were a movie character, I’d be that guy in the victorian era movies writing endless love letters to his beloved of admiration and devotion. You can call me a sap if you wish. Sap, sap, sap!
As a teen, I became a people helper and problem solver, so when a friend was in need, I aimed to make it better. This became my focus in college, resulting in a psychology degree. Of course it was only after those 5 years of study that I realized being a traditional counselor was not going to do it for me! Go figure.
It was during college that I took interest in personal growth, spirituality, and manifesting my reality through conscious intention. Wow, were those some cool and powerful tools to discover!
After choosing not to become a counselor, I lended my hand at helping others through working for conscious companies as an administrative assistant, and with the love for organizing, making things function better and space aesthetics, every space I worked in received a well-rounded reorganization!
It finally dawned on me that I could do home and office organization professionally, so I founded and ran my business, Peace of Time, for several years, and only after a friend pointed out that I was simply an interior decorator in denial, did I realize that he probably really had a point there!
And thus, EcoKind Design was born. 1 part spaces, 1 part people helping, I part intentional living, and 1 part eco conscious. The focus on spaces for love came into play around year 2, after I took a workshop on finding your niche within your niche. It totally chose me, once I opened up the flood gates for it to be seen!
Thank you to all of you who have supported me along the way. I owe a huge part of my indie success to Biznik, where I have learned SO much, and have met and worked with the most amazing indie professionals! The rest of the credit goes to my amazing family, friends and of course, my clients! I wouldn’t be here without you!
May your every day be filled with all the magic and wonder that you can possibly imagine, and then some!
Brightest Blessings,
Amy
