An entrepreneur, design blogger and home furnishings designer, COCO is one of Forbes Magazine's Top 30 Influencers.

COCO also has been featured in numerous online and print publications, including House Beautiful, Architectural Digest, Lonny, Domino, Rue and My Domaine. In 2013, she launched a rug collection for Capel Rugs, and her licensed COCOCOZY collection of home furnishings has grown over time to include luxury pillows, throws, bedding, drapery and home accents.
