A typical day in my life includes…
sharing on my Instagram account @modernfarmhouseglam what I LOVE doing and am so passionate about, home decor and lifestyle! In a very short time, it has turned into a business full of possibilities! Every day I share creative content with my followers and provide inspiration for home and life. The topics include tips on styling your home to make it a space that looks attractive and brings a feeling of comfort. I take you along on video tutorials as I complete DIY projects like shiplap, wallpaper, and stone accent walls. I also share fun ideas for entertaining, travel, cooking, and beauty/fashion. Best of all, I get to connect with women all over the country who share a similar passion for home decor. It is extremely rewarding to inspire and encourage other women to create their own dream home. The gratitude I receive from my followers who I help with advice on home decor or inspire them to have the courage to try a DIY project has made this adventure extremely personally rewarding.
I was born…
in Pittsburgh, PA. We left the cloudiest city for the sunniest 14 years ago and never looked back!
My favorite thing about Arizona…
the stunning sunsets from our backyard. One of my favorite spots in Arizona is Sedona! My husband and I got married outside on the red rocks of Sedona, with breathtaking views of Cathedral Rock.
I’m listening to…
pop and country are my faves!
My family…
means everything to me! My amazing husband and two kiddos are my proudest accomplishments. I can’t imagine life without them.
If I could have dinner with anyone, it would be…
Martha Stewart! I was lucky enough to get to meet her at the Home and Garden Show a few months ago. She’s such an icon and a successful businesswoman. I would love to pick her brain and oh by the way, can SHE make the dinner?
One thing I cannot live without…
lip gloss!
When I was younger, I wanted to be…
a doctor or a business owner.
I’m inspired by…
all of the amazing examples of creative ideas for home decor that we have available on Instagram, Pinterest, and the HGTV Network. So much eye candy!
The one person who motivates me is…
my followers! The connections I have made through Instagram are so special to me. Sharing my passion and being met with such enthusiasm from my audience keeps me wanting to produce more inspirational content.
If I could change anything in the world, it would be…
building stronger families. Change starts with what is taught at home.
The perfect day would be…
a family adventure outdoors like hiking or dune buggy trail riding in the gorgeous Arizona desert! Next a fun dinner out and a glass of wine around the backyard fire pit with fam and friends.
My first job was…
a Pharmaceutical Sales Rep for Pfizer.
My favorite escape…
Zion National Park was the most breathtaking National Park we have visited! There’s something about being surrounded by the beauty of nature that makes you feel so rejuvenated. A fun party weekend in Vegas always does the trick, too!
My life…
is so full! I’m grateful to have a beautiful family, friends, and SO many things that I am passionate about.
I’m currently working on…
business opportunities for furthering my online retail website and the Modern Farmhouse Glam brand.
Always…
buy from a child’s lemonade stand.
Never…
can you have too many throw pillows.
Favorite Quote…
“Integrity is doing the right thing even when no one is watching.” C.S. Lewis
Biggest Dream…
I’m living it! I have my health, family, friends, and happiness… what more could I ask for?
My Pet Peeve(s)…
waiting on hold and hearing, “Your call is very important to us. Please enjoy this 20-minute flute solo.”
More about Amy and Modern Farmhouse Glam…
