I am a graduate of Wayne State University, where I studied Fashion Design with minors in Textile Design and Art History.
In my design practice, I work to create whimsical and wearable pieces, bringing playfulness into everyday life . I am influenced by elements of costume, historical dress, and art history, looking back on elements of dress that have stood the test of time. I often work with secondhand materials.
I am an advocate for a fashion industry that uplifts and preserves the dignity and beauty of all people and environments involved. My main goal in my work as a designer is to work towards reintroducing artistry into fashion, not simply producing products, but making garments that will be treasured as future heirlooms.
