Meet the founder

Hi, I'm Anna. This is the home I wish I'd had at 38.

At 38, I came home to an apartment full of furniture bought for a life I no longer lived. After nine years as a visual merchandiser for a home furnishings retailer, I knew why: most home advice is built for couples and families.

So I started writing the guides I wish I’d had as a woman living on her own. No “wait until your life settles.” Just honest picks, renter-safe ideas, and budget-smart decorating, with the occasional opinion from my cat, Biscuit.
