Donna Lewis Stiles

Donna Lewis Stiles brings a lifetime of diverse experiences to her work as a writer, creator, and designer. Her journey began with a crown as Miss Delaware, but it's the chapters that followed that truly shaped her artistic vision.

For over two decades, Donna dedicated herself to education, teaching children and coaching dance in Delaware and Ocean City, Maryland. Those years of nurturing creativity while raising her two children along the coast—exploring waterways with her beloved black labs, Raven and Captain—instilled in her work a sense of freedom, adventure, and natural beauty. The beach became her muse, with its changing tides and relaxed elegance shaping her design philosophy.

Now based in Tampa, Florida, Donna continues her creative pursuits accompanied by her French Bulldog, Hook, and surrounded by the joy of grandson JJ and granddogs Tate and Camie. Through all of life's transitions, she has maintained one core belief: beautiful living comes from embracing both elegance and authenticity.

Whether through writing, creative projects, or design, Donna celebrates the art of making every space—and every moment—a little more beautiful, a little more meaningful, and deeply personal.
