Hello.jpg

Hi, I am Katy!  I am an engineer with a passion for design, lifestyle, and home. I love all things modern and contemporary home design, but more importantly I love the feeling of being home. I have always craved a home that enables a lifestyle worth celebrating. 

​

Growing up I would grab the little real estate book at restaurants (before the days of smart phones) and circle homes I wanted when I grew up. I would play the Sims, except not really play it, but design the houses for hours and hours. I went on to earn my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Engineering. I began working in the auto industry, following my Dad and both Grandpa’s footsteps. I landed working in the Design Studio where I was reminded of my respect, appreciation, and passion for beautiful design.

​

With all that said, welcome to Striking Modern! A website that celebrates intentional surroundings for intentional living, because it is our environment that influences our mindset and inspires our lifestyle. My goal is to create these surroundings for myself and my family.  Here you will find more about our home build journey, with curated products and stories along the way. I hope this blog inspires you - to create an environment that influences you to live your best life.
