About Me

Hi, I'm Tobi.

I'm the founder of Olivia Tyche Homes, and I've loved making spaces feel beautiful since my university days. It wasn't until I bought my first home, though, that I found my real passion: renovation. My first big project was transforming our unfinished basement, a complicated job that showed me just how much a space can change with the right plan and a lot of care.

Since then, I've brought that same energy to homes across the Kitchener-Waterloo-Cambridge region, Milton and Oshawa. My favourite part is the moment a plain, overlooked room becomes the one that wows everyone who walks in.

Before design, my career was in accounting, business analysis, process improvement and project management. For you, that means more than a beautiful result. You get a clear plan, an organized timeline and an honest budget, with no surprises along the way.

At home, I'm a wife and a mom of two busy kids who keep my life wonderfully full, so I know a home has to work hard as well as look good.

Let's turn the room you avoid into the room you show off.
