Staged4more is an international school of home staging that is impact-driven and community-focused.
We are here to build a diverse and inclusive international home staging community that celebrates and promotes the transformational power of home staging.
How we do this:
Innovation
We’ve done many things that no one else in the industry has done! For example:
- The Home Staging Show podcast is the longest running podcast dedicated to all things home staging. It is now an Apple Top 200 Podcast in Careers category in many countries.
- We created StagerCon, a completely virtual and almost free home staging conference for home stagers from around the world.
- We created and host an annual International Home Staging Awards with winners and finalists from the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, Italy, Thailand, Poland. It is truly an international celebration of the transformational power of home staging.
- We created a Home Staging Professional Career Certificate, that is a unique home staging training program that combines courses, coaching, mentorship, mastermind, accountability and support. There is nothing like it on the market currently. The Career Certificate is not only a step-by-step program that can take you from $0 to working, it is also a coaching and mastermind program that will consistently motivate and nudge dedicated stagers towards their goals.
All to celebrate and uplift the home staging industry.

Founder + Lead Instructor
A third-generation small business owner, Cindy has been working since she got baby teeth. She started Staged4more in her parents’ garage when she was 25 and grew it to an award-winning home staging company operating out of a 5,800 square feet warehouse.
In 2017, Cindy transitioned Staged4more completely to become an international school for home stagers, teaching online courses since 2016.
She also created and piloted the in-person home staging short course for the University of the Arts London (UAL), which is ranked 2nd in the world for Art and Design and Europe's largest specialist art and design university, with over 19,000 students from more than 130 countries.
Throughout her career, Cindy has cultivated a diverse range of creative backgrounds, including building sets and windows for companies like Anthropologie, Ralph Lauren, and Saks Fifth Avenue. She has designed and installed decor for commercial and private events and worked on photo shoots as a prop and wardrobe assistant for companies like O Magazine, Target, Williams-Sonoma, Pottery Barn, Gap, Google, and Apple.
Cindy's extensive experience and expertise in styling, visual design, composition, photography, and business models in creative industries have helped to enrich her teaching, making her a unique and highly sought-after home staging educator internationally.
She earned two Master's degrees while building Staged4more as an international school of home staging. Additionally, Cindy works internationally as an artist with a lens-based practice and has been published and exhibited internationally.
