Hi, I’m Regina

Entrepreneur. Writer. Reader. Teacher. Enemy of the Average.

Welcome!

I'm Regina Garay, founder of Right Brain Loves Left, where I blend my artistic passion with strategic prowess to support artists, makers, brands, and nonprofit organizations in the interior design and construction fields. My adventure started in 2000 as a decorative artist, painting murals and patterns that brought spaces to life in residential, hospitality, and commercial properties. Though initially embracing my creative right brain, running my business taught me the value of my analytical left brain—managing finances, calculating dimensions, and handling inventory.

In 2007, during the economic downturn, I pivoted to utilize my marketing skills, focusing on the interior design and construction industries and expanding later into broader creative and nonprofit sectors. Today, I offer tailored 'done-for-you' 1:1 digital marketing management, teach comprehensive courses, and lead the GoalMinds Mastermind group. I also serve as a Marketing Mentor in the SCORE program and deliver impactful workshops and presentations.

Whether I’m crafting marketing strategies, mentoring in workshops, managing your marketing needs directly, or teaching through my courses, I'm here to demonstrate how fully leveraging your creative and analytical skills can profoundly enhance all aspects of your professional and personal life.

The Why Behind the Name: Right Brain Loves Left

People who are right-brained are said to be more creative, intuitive, and imaginative. Those who are left-brained are thought to be more analytical, factual, and logical.

Our brain has incredible potential - we are given the gift of both. The brain, and your work, are at their best when your right and left side skills collaborate.

I want you to walk away astonished at how better processes can help you solve problems faster, manage your marketing with greater ease, and even find more time for yourself. My mission is to provide effective, efficient, and enjoyable solutions for those who struggle with the management of their small business projects, goals, and marketing.

Who I Work With

I partner with artisans, tradespeople, brands, and nonprofit organizations in the design and construction sectors. This includes professionals such as painters and finishers, wallpaper installers, window treatment specialists, millworkers, flooring specialists, carpenters, and more—all dedicated to bringing design and build visions to life. My clientele shares a need for practical marketing and effective goal achievement.

I engage with clients both on-site and online, from intimate workshops to well-regarded industry conferences.
