Our Story
We're Renew Home, also affectionately known by our clients as the #RenewCrew. We specialize in interior design and home staging services.
Whether it's prepping your home to sell faster and for more, or perfecting the look of your forever home, we're here to help.
Six years ago Laneé Miller, an expert in real estate and home rehab, staged her own flip houses so that they would sell for more. A few agents she knew reached out asking her to stage their listings, which led her to an idea about fulfilling a need in the rapidly growing Utah real estate market: home staging. Starting with a horse trailer and a garage full of her own furniture, Renew Home Staging & Design was born! Years later the #RenewCrew have been staging downtown urban condos, multimillion-dollar homes, and have even been featured in various Parades and Showcases. Renew Home now has one of the largest warehouses for staging and design in Salt Lake and an incredibly versatile inventory of furnishings and décor.
We’re glad you’re here and we can’t wait to work with you! Welcome to our #RenewCrew!
Meet The Team
Laneé Miller | Founder
Laneé’s journey into home staging began with a love for design and a childhood spent watching her dad rehab houses. After working as a dental hygienist, she shifted her focus to real estate, where she quickly realized the power of staging in helping buyers connect with a home. With a background in real estate investing and a real estate license, Laneé founded Renew Home Staging & Design to help create inviting spaces that buyers can truly imagine themselves in.
As a Certified Instructor for the Real Estate Staging Association (RESA), Laneé enjoys sharing her expertise and helping others discover the difference staging can make. She partners with real estate agents and builders to create spaces that feel warm, welcoming, and ready for their new owners. Laneé also works closely with design clients, offering personalized design solutions that reflect their style and transform their homes into functional, beautiful spaces. Whether it's staging for sale or curating a fresh design, Laneé is passionate about helping her clients create spaces where they can feel at home.
Outside of staging and design, you’ll find Laneé traveling, hiking, or spending time with her husband and their eight kids in Pleasant Grove, Utah.
Tomasi Ngatuvai | Director of Home Staging
Tomasi started his career in customer service & sales, but his natural love of design, styling, and shopping led him to make the move to Renew Home- a company and role that allows him to use both his analytical and creative skills to their full capacity.
As Director of Home Staging, Tomasi is responsible for every aspect of a project, from space planning, sourcing, and execution to client interactions, team leadership, and budget management. Passionate about exceeding customer expectations and empowering others, Tomasi is motivated by spreading happiness through beautiful spaces. The instant gratification of upgrading a space, as well as the satisfaction of the homeowners he works with, are what fuel him from one project to the next.
Known for his endlessly positive outlook, Tomasi leads both his team and clients by example. He fully embodies Renew’s core values of fun, unwavering integrity, collaboration, and resourcefulness. Together with his #RenewCrew, Tomasi has staged a wide variety of projects from downtown urban condominiums to multimillion-dollar Parade of Homes properties in Salt Lake and St. George.

Outside of work, Tomasi loves to spend time with family and friends, shop, and travel.
Sofia Rasmussen | Staging Manager
Before Sofia got started in staging, she loved being a barista and connecting with her regular customers. Sofia has carried her love of people into her design work, gravitating to what called her: working with clients to decorate and complete their homes.
Moving from a national home retail store, she left her legacy as a top salesperson on a whim, knowing her passion was to be in the home decorating and continuing to foster relationships with clients. Renew Home was searching for a new staging assistant; the timing was kismet! Sofia's talents couldn't be hidden and she quickly moved through the ranks, excelling from Staging Assistant to Staging Lead, Inventory Supervisor and now Staging Manager.
As Renew's Staging Manager, Sofia exemplifies the company's core values and passes them along to her beloved #RenewCrew. Always having fun and laughing, Sofia encourages others to be their best and lean into their own talents. Along with her superior styling skills, managing the team is one of her best abilities.
Outside of work, Sofia enjoys being surrounded by her loving husband and two dogs, as they eagerly await the arrival of their baby. Her love of relationships leads her to spend time visiting with family in Delta, Utah, and as far as Tennessee and Illinois, where she was raised. Some of Sofia's favorite pastimes include camping, water sports and hanging out at home playing board games.
