When the Beach Boys sang of California Dreamin‘, they probably had a gal like Jane Jameston in mind. Even today, Jane radiates a warm, ethereal beauty and translates those same qualities into her work as an actress and interior designer.

She founded her design biz, Malibu*Jane, to assist folks in creating beautiful environments that reflect who they are and support who they want to become. With an eye for effortless, understated elegance and a brain for bargains, Jane helps you shine.

Along the way, I found my dog “Arlie” in the desert, ditched my commercial airline job and started flying on private jets (much more fun). My boss, who owns the G 5 jet, is a MAJOR power player. I’ll just call him “The Principal”, since I’m not allowed to divulge his identity. I ended up falling in love. Nooo, not…
