MEET AMANDA

I've always had a burning passion for figuring out how things work and am fueled by problem solving and systems.

Between growing up in a house where we did things ourselves and my 10+ year (and counting!) career in commercial construction, I have meshed the skills I've learned with my love for design and teaching and voila, Steel Toed Stilettos was born.

The confidence I've gained is like no other, and it is my mission to teach you how you can experience that confidence yourself in learning to transform your house into your home.
