MEET AMANDA
I’ve always been wired to figure out how things work — drawn to problem solving, systems, and seeing how all the pieces come together.
Between growing up in a hands-on, DIY household and spending the last decade+ in commercial construction - managing projects and now working behind the scenes improving the systems, tools, and processes teams use to build them, I’ve built a foundation that blends construction knowledge with real-world execution.
Paired with my love for design and teaching, Steel Toed Stilettos was born.
My goal is simple: to give you the clarity and confidence to transform your house into a home — without second-guessing every decision along the way.
