Hello…

Hello! I’m May.

I’m a Jersey beach girl at heart, now raising my three children in the vibrant community of Fairfax, Virginia. While my professional background includes an MBA and a career teaching algebra, my soul has always belonged to the world of design.

Everything DUCHESS is where my love for logic meets my passion for aesthetics. Whether I’m sourcing unique home goods, refinishing a forgotten piece of furniture, or exploring styles from classic European elegance to bold, eclectic color palettes, I find joy in bringing beauty back to life. Thank you for being part of this journey!
