ABOUT
Since before I can remember, fashion has been my truest form of self expression. My passion for creating only grows more when thinking of ways to enable others to express themselves authentically. I have been committed to the adaptive fashion community for many years, where I’ve championed inclusivity- profoundly my most rewarding work. I hope to continue to use my talents and love for fashion to remind people of the power that clothing holds for all of us. With a culmination of knowledge from design courses at schools including Central Saint Martins, Parsons, FIT, Drexel, and UT, my skills are constantly developing. Using my experiences within the fashion industry thus far and my vast educational knowledge, I strive to create fashion and art that is eclectic, innovative, and ensures self-expression is put on the highest pedestal. I received my Bachelors of Science at The University of Texas at Austin majoring in Textiles and Apparel Design with a minor in Entrepreneurship at the McCombs School of Business. I aim to fuse my creative strengths with my entrepreneurial spark to conduct hands-on, collaborative work within the fashion industry.
